Racing Against 2030: Small Carriers, Big Sustainability Challenges

Europe’s transport sector must cut emissions fast to meet 2030 climate goals. While big players push ahead, small and medium carriers – the backbone of the industry – risk being left behind. This article highlights their challenges and the solutions needed to keep them part of the transition.

LOTS Group Acquires Elain – Strengthening capacity for data-driven CO₂ reduction

As pressure mounts on the logistics sector to cut emissions, many companies still struggle to turn climate data into actionable change. With the acquisition of Elain, LOTS Group is bridging that gap. By combining operational expertise with one of the market’s most advanced emissions platforms, the two companies aim to deliver deeper insights, stronger compliance, and measurable CO₂ reductions — without compromising on cost or quality.

White paper: It’s Not the Truck – It’s the System: How to Make Electric Freight Work

The road to decarbonized freight isn't blocked by technology — it's blocked by outdated thinking. Battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) are ready. Long-range electric trucks exist. Public charging infrastructure is growing along Europe’s major corridors. So why aren’t we seeing widescale adoption of electric road freight? The answer is simple: it’s not about the truck. It’s about the system around it.

White paper: Collaborative Shipping: Paving the Way to Net Zero Logistics

The logistics industry is at a pivotal moment. As one of the largest contributors to global emissions, transportation must evolve swiftly to meet the increasing demands for sustainability and carbon reduction. The future of logistics is rooted in reducing carbon footprints, and two critical strategies have emerged: electrification and collaborative shipping.

SKF and LOTS Group Collaborate on Electrification – Launching One of Europe’s Longest BEV Routes

As the demand for greener transport solutions grows, SKF and LOTS Group, together with Scania and Ahréns Åkeri, are taking action by launching one of Europe’s longest battery-electric vehicle (BEV) routes. This initiative significantly reduces emissions while optimizing transport efficiency. By leveraging digital tools and collaboration across the supply chain, the project demonstrates that long-haul electrification is both feasible and economically viable, setting a new standard for sustainable logistics.

Navigating Electricity Cost Structures: Optimizing BEV Charging Economics

Electrifying freight means mastering grid costs. Peak demand, not fuel price, defines BEV economics.

Women Driving Change in Logistics

LOTS Group’s female driver training program fosters inclusion and changes the face of road transport.

Battery Energy Storage Systems: A Smart Step Toward Scalable Fast Charging

As the world races towards net-zero emissions targets, the electrification of long-haul trucking offers immense potential to reduce emissions. However, the higher upfront costs of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) pose a challenge to widespread adoption in the freight industry. This is where Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) emerge as a game-changing solution, enabling lower charging prices and helping to offset the increased capital expenditure associated with BEVs, thus paving the way for a more sustainable and economically viable future in heavy-duty transportation.

ETS2: Calculating Your Emissions – A Guide for Logistics Professionals

Article 2 in our series about ETS2: Accurately calculating emissions. With ETS2 introducing a cost for carbon and CSRD driving demand for primary emissions data, logistics professionals must adopt standardized methodologies like those outlined in the GHG Protocol, ISO 14083, and the GLEC framework. Choosing the right calculation approach and collaborating with supply chain partners will be critical for meeting regulatory requirements, maintaining competitiveness, and driving meaningful CO2 reductions.

ETS2: The End of Business as Usual for Logistics and Transport

Article 1 in our series on ETS2: The EU’s Emissions Trading System 2 (ETS2), launching in 2027, will bring carbon pricing to road transport, buildings, and smaller industries—driving long-overdue emissions reductions in logistics. This article series breaks down the key impacts and offers practical insights to help businesses adapt.

Case: Boosting Efficiency Through Lean Principles: The Power of Small Changes

Lean production is about more than cutting costs. It’s about creating a smarter, more resilient system that adds value at every step. By embracing lean efficiency, we’re not only improving processes but also laying the foundation for a more sustainable, greener supply chain.

Collaborative Shipping – Decarbonization won’t happen in silos

One of the most significant challenges facing the logistics sector is its fragmented nature. With multiple stakeholders, from manufacturers to logistics providers, each working in their own domain, inefficiencies are bound to arise. This siloed approach hinders the progress needed to transition toward sustainable, electric transport. The lack of a cohesive strategy results in duplicated efforts, wasted resources, and slower overall progress toward sustainability goals.

The Changing Landscape of Logistics

The logistics industry stands at a critical crossroads, grappling with unprecedented challenges as it seeks to reduce emissions while meeting the demands of a rapidly evolving global economy. Currently, transport accounts for 25% of total EU emissions, with heavy-duty vehicles representing a significant portion of this total.

Electrification – The Next Frontier for Decarbonizing Transport

Electrification offers a promising path to reducing transport emissions, but challenges like high costs and limited charging infrastructure slow its adoption. This article examines the potential of electric trucks and the key obstacles to creating a sustainable logistics future.

Enhancing Efficiency and Sustainability in Logistics

The logistics industry is constantly evolving, and companies are always looking for ways to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance sustainability. One such initiative is the transition from non-stackable to stackable pallets. This document explores the potential benefits of this transition for a client who has been using non-stackable pallets for bulk transportation of components. The goal is to identify how switching to stackable pallets can optimize logistics operations, reduce costs, and support sustainability goals while adhering to lean efficiency principles.
