Overview

With fuel consumption contributing 25-45% of total vehicle operating costs, maximising efficiency is vital. Additionally, for every 1,000 litres of diesel used, 2.6 tonnes of CO2 is released, thereby raising environmental concerns and resulting in legislation.

This event will examine the various ways that fleet operators can reduce their fuel expenditure, and also reduce CO2 emissions. With presentations from leading manufacturers, fleet operators and industry experts, it will provide a comprehensive guide to the latest developments and techniques in fuel efficiency for fleet operators.
