Goodyear Dunlop Symposium identifies fuel saving techniques
A symposium held by Goodyear Dunlop in Brussels bringing together a panel of transport exports has identified the most important fuel-saving measures in front of around 170 transport executives and senior government figures. Aerodynamic devices, incentives, training, low rolling resistance tyres and new length regulations were some of the key techniques in helping to reduce vehicles’ CO2 emissions. The symposium, entitled, ‘Best Practice in Reducing Fuel Consumption’ included panellists Marco Digioia, secretary general of UETR (European Road Haulers Association); Benny Smets, managing director of Belgium-based haulage company NinaTrans; and Gandert Van Raemdonck, researcher at Delft University of Technology.
