### Substantial Investments for Freight Decarbonization
In a strategic move to enhance freight decarbonization, ARENA has allocated significant funds—AU$20 million to Linfox and AU$9 million to Toll. This injection is part of a broader AU$124 million investment aimed at reducing emissions in the transport sector through the Driving the Nation program. This initiative oversees an overall fund of $500 million dedicated to creating more affordable and sustainable transportation solutions, which includes support for electric vehicle fleets, advancements in long-haul vehicles, and improvements in public charging as well as hydrogen refueling stations.
### Impact of Heavy Vehicles on National Emissions
ARENA’s CEO Darren Miller underscored the critical role that heavy transport plays in mitigating environmental harm associated with goods movement. He noted that while there has been significant progress concerning battery electric vehicles (BEVs) over the past year—including enhanced vehicle availability and supporting infrastructure—barriers like high initial costs, inadequate charging technology, and insufficient real-world data persist.
According to Mr. Miller, transportation constitutes approximately 20% of Australia’s carbon dioxide emissions—with heavy vehicles accounting for a considerable fraction—which highlights why ARENA is concentrating efforts here; forecasts indicate that by 2030, this sector could become Australia’s primary emission source.
### Linfox’s Bold Initiative: Electrifying Fleet Operations
Linfox plans to integrate 26 battery electric trucks along with comprehensive charging infrastructure across its distribution centers located throughout Victoria, South Australia, and Queensland. Funded partly by ARENA’s support over a three-year trial period, these projects aim to gather empirical data regarding “the performance of heavy EV trucks covering longer distances under varied workload scenarios.”
Ruby Diaz from Linfox explained that Diesel-consuming operations account for 85% of their carbon footprint; thus transitioning towards electrification is pivotal for meaningful progress in their sustainability agenda. The introduction of just one Volvo FM Electric truck can yield around 65 tonnes fewer CO2-e emissions annually when powered by renewable energy sources.
When considering all 26 new electric prime movers combined, Linfox anticipates substantial reductions in carbon emissions alongside improved service capabilities across expansive metropolitan areas using larger payloads and enhanced battery performance.
“The shift enables us not only to ensure timely deliveries but also allows customers access cleaner options—culminating efforts toward achieving their own decarbonization targets,” Ruby emphasized while acknowledging Linfox’s commitment to sharing insights gained from this transition within industry partnerships focused on collective emission reductions.
### Future-ready Infrastructure Enhancements
Preparing for these changes involves establishing state-of-the-art charging facilities at many existing sites rated under Green Star standards as well as during new construction projects—a forward-thinking approach distinguishing Linfox within logistics space readiness initiatives.
### Toll Group’s Commitment To Electric Integration
Toll Group is embarking on “Project TruckVolt,” integrating an additional fleet consisting of 28 battery-powered trucks complemented by robust charging options situated at ten customer-owned sites nationwide (with up-to-date installation involving thirty fresh ports). Their collaboration with RMIT University will analyze operational dynamics encompassing energy demands linked with route planning alongside payload evaluation metrics within this transition framework influenced heavily by ARENA funding mechanisms covering essential incremental expenses related between known diesel alternatives versus newer electrified operational modalities—a testament exemplified through planned acquisitions involving both Volvo FM electric prime movers supplemented further via FE variants positioned strategically throughout logistics networks focusing catered relationships including notable clients such as Coca-Cola Europacific Partners amongst others.
Projected outcomes forecast an annual abatement exceeding 1,810 tonnes CO2-e due directly towards comprehensive investment strategies empowering Toll Group not merely strategically positioned atop contemporary discussions surrounding corporate responsibilities towards climate change mitigation yet establishing themselves distinctly leaders navigating last-mile transformation pathways pivotal
