New AI-powered carbon emissions tracking that can help companies meet their supply chain sustainability goals and slash their fuel consumption is now available from DispatchTrack.

The tool teams up CO2 emissions numbers in real-time with route optimisation powered by AI

Said to be a global first, the new solution enables green delivery options that leverage the most efficient routes with fewer miles driven and less fuel used – DispatchTrack says the platform can help last-mile delivery companies reduce fuel consumption across their fleet by at least 10%.

It’s the latest solution from the green logistics solutions specialist and tackles the core issue of fuel consumption in deliveries – not only one of the largest contributors to emissions in the modern supply chain, but also one of the greatest costs for delivery companies.

Using DispatchTrack’s AI-powered route optimisation engine, companies can better understand their existing carbon output on a per-route, per-stop and per-vehicle basis, optimise routes to reduce CO2 output, and gather data to illustrate the impact of their sustainability initiatives.

The new feature can be easily added to a customer’s existing DispatchTrack portal. Emissions data is included within routing and reporting screens, allowing users to visualise carbon emissions for each stop, and will dynamically update as routes are changed, all based on configurable emissions expectations based on different vehicle and load types.

Alex Buckley, general manager of EMEA and APAC operations at DispatchTrack, commented: “Consumers are making more and more of an effort to make sustainable choices. What better way for brands to help them do that – and show off their own success at boosting sustainability – than by being able to seamlessly track and report the reduction of CO2 emissions in their deliveries??

Satish Natarajan, co-founder and CEO, added: “When it comes to the last mile, businesses around the world are taking sustainability seriously. There’s mounting pressure to do better and to invest in initiatives that actually reduce CO2. With the industry’s first AI-based CO2 tracking capabilities, we’re helping our customers double down on their net-zero commitments and achieve their sustainability goals. By providing CO2 emissions numbers in real-time and route optimisation powered by AI, DispatchTrack is helping our customers reduce their emissions with confidence and become even more competitive.”
