Fuel efficiency
Additionally, LNG trucks typically achieve 5-10 per cent better fuel efficiency, leading to lower fuel consumption and long-term cost benefits. The company’s LNG-powered fleet is contributing to Scope 3 emission reductions for its tyre customers, allowing them to include sustainability gains in their environmental reporting and carbon accounting. This initiative aligns with Epsilon’s growing focus on value chain decarbonisation and collaborative climate action.
Supporting India’s net zero goals
Vikram Handa, Managing Director, Epsilon Carbon, said, “India’s road logistics sector moves nearly 70 per cent of domestic freight and plays a critical role in the economy. We believe the future of logistics must be both efficient and environmentally responsible. As a leader in the chemical industry, we are committed to reducing our environmental footprint. The launch of our LNG-powered fleet is a step towards cleaner, smarter freight movement and reflects our continued support for India’s net zero goals by 2070.”
