EPA’s SmartWay program helps companies advance supply chain sustainability by measuring, benchmarking, and improve freight transportation efficiency.
Fewer than 10 percent of all SmartWay carriers operate fleets efficient enough to make the SmartWay high performer list for carbon emissions.
Carbon is a leading indicator of fuel use, meaning that SmartWay High Performers for carbon also consume less fuel for every mile they travel and for every ton of freight they move. For example, for every trip they make, high performing SmartWay truckload carriers for carbon move heavier loads, packing their trailers more efficiently – and still consume thousands of gallons of less fuel annually, as compared to their SmartWay peers.
