As part of our Living ESG cornerstone, we reduce emissions within our direct control by cutting energy consumption, sourcing and on-site production of renewable energy as well as transitioning to alternative drive systems. However, as an asset-light company, most of our emissions lie within our value chain. To address this, our experts collaborate closely with both carriers and customers to implement low-emission logistics solutions.
Low-emission logistics
Book and Claim makes low-emission logistics solutions more available. It does that by removing implementation challenges, like limited distribution networks for low-carbon fuels and missing charging infrastructure for electric vehicles (EVs). As such, Book and Claim is necessary to support the transition to a future in which low-emission logistics solutions are the norm.
Kuehne+Nagel began offering Book and Claim for low-carbon fuels in 2019 and launched the first Book and Claim solution for electric trucks in January 2024. Our solution is externally verified for all transport modes, ensuring our certificates reflect real emissions reductions and support meaningful decarbonisation.
By sharing our expertise through forums like the international Book and Claim Community and offering training to colleagues and customers, we aim to show that Book and Claim is a reliable tool for reducing transport emissions — and key for fast-tracking our industry’s decarbonisation.
