From this competition, Scania decided to create a special recognition for the top three companies in CO2 emissions reduction. All of these are part of Scania’s commitment towards minimising emissions from its products and its own operations. These include cutting CO2 emissions by 20 percent from its customers’ land transport per transported tonne by 2025 (using 2015 as a baseline), and 50 percent from its own operation. As an Ecolution partner with Scania, the good company and the good driver are part of the journey towards achieving Science Based Target of reducing CO2 emissions in line with Scania’s Science Based Targets of the Science Based Target initiative (SBTi).
