5. En modell för intermodala transporters koldioxidutsläpp per order : En fallstudie om koldioxidutsläpp-beräkningar & transportföretagens hinder vid övergången till fossilfria drivmedel
Magister-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för ekonomistyrning och logistik (ELO)Sammanfattning : Background: Stricter requirements from customers that transport companies must be able to show their carbon dioxide emissions have resulted that it has become more relevant for transport companies to have a calculation model of their transports' carbon dioxide emissions per order. The EU's climate goal of becoming climate neutral by 2050 is something that will require change, that is why it is relevant that the obstacles that exist for transport companies in the transition from fossil- to fossil-free fuels are presented in order to be in line with the EU's environmental goals.
