AERRL has launched this study authored by eolos GmbH to identify and promote technologies to cut the climate impact of the existing diesel-powered rail fleets in the near future. A transition from diesel must encompass the technological readiness and application scenario as well as a proactive approach to include the European Union (EU) regulations prohibiting high emissive practices.
The aim of this study is to start a conversation that takes up the EU’s query about the most effective
policy levers for a very low-carbon emission railway industry. Proper and detailed calculations with
regard to the environmental impact of each solution should be addressed in the next phase.
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a methodology used to evaluate the environmental impacts of a product or service throughout its entire life cycle including raw material extraction, production, distribution/transportation, use/operation, and end-of-life management.
It offers a holistic perspective, examining the environmental repercussions.
Great news from the EU: The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) promotes increased transparency and harmonized disclosure for sustainability information in financial reports. Broadening the Non-Financial Reporting Directive’s scope, CSRD introduces double materiality and standardized reporting, which will be progressively implemented between 2025-2029.
Hager Group, advised by eolos, is working towards manufacturing eco-responsibility. By involving plant energy managers and implementing improvements, they reduced CO2 emissions by 1% in Q3 2022, eliminated 200 tons of non-recycled plastic packaging, and aim for 100% sustainable packaging by 2024.
