A new fleet of liquefied natural gas (LNG) lorries from Imperial is helping to drive sustainable logistics at the Mini factory in Oxford.
In all, 18 LNG lorries are now transporting parts and components from suppliers on 15 different routes across the UK to the home of Mini.
The new fleet has already delivered a reduction of approximately 20% in CO² and NOx emissions, compared to diesel alternatives.
In future, a total CO² reduction of up to 90% is expected by using bio-LNG.
Thomas Frank, director of logistics at Mini Plant Oxford, said: “We are really excited to be working with Imperial on this project as part of our wider efforts to improve sustainability throughout all areas of the BMW Group.
