With businesses becoming increasingly aware of their social and environmental responsibilities, technology to help companies become greener is in high demand. Now, CMS SupaTrak, suppliers of GPS tracking systems and satellite tracking, offer the award winning EcoTrak system designed to reduce the fuel consumption and carbon emissions of businesses in addition to saving them money.
Fuel represents around a third of the total operating costs of a fleet business and so in these challenging economic and environmental times any solution to cut costs in addition to making a company “greener” is welcome. EcoTrak has been developed in conjunction with fleet managers and haulage companies to report on specific vehicle consumption and to monitor individual driving behaviour. This information allows fleet managers to retrain drivers in more efficient ways of driving to reduce fuel consumption and carbon emissions.
Jason Airey, Managing Director at CMS SupaTrak, experts in fleet management, said, “The Freight Transport Association identified back in 2008 that drivers have the most significant influence on fuel consumption. It flows therefore that by monitoring individual driver’s habits, improvements can be made to their driving which reduces fuel consumption and therefore harmful carbon emissions.”
Businesses using EcoTrak have reported fuel savings of between ten and twenty percent due to the improved behaviours demonstrated by their drivers. This also correlates with a similar reduction in carbon emissions.
Mr Airey added, “The simple reports that EcoTrak produces can be viewed online twenty four hours a day and clearly identify ways in which fuel savings can be achieved. With environmental concerns becoming increasingly important to businesses, this award winning technology can help companies not only save money but also demonstrate their commitment to a greener, more socially responsible philosophy.”
