Reducing the emissions that cause global warming is an important issue for Euro Cargo Rail customers. Euro Cargo Rail trains emit five times less carbon emissions per tonne km than road haulage. Transferring freight from road to rail will help reduce carbon emissions.

To assist its customers in selecting a carbon friendly haulage mode, Euro Cargo Rail is pleased provide a website to compare the emissions and energy consumption of five different transport modes for freight traffic – road, rail, inland waterway, sea and air.

Customers are provided with information on any individual route and variable transport volume, showing the energy consumption, carbon dioxide emissions and exhaust emissions for each mode of transportation. Euro Cargo Rail believes this helps its customers select the transport choice that truly delivers a low carbon solution.
