“Largest Fleet of ‘Green’ Trucks Launched” |
 Australia’s largest fleet of ‘Green’ trucks has been launched by the Minister for Resources, Energy and Tourism, the Hon Martin Ferguson.
Star Track Express, Australia’s leading express freight and logistics company, is deploying 25 of the latest generation diesel electric hybrid trucks. These trucks set the standard in the logistics industry for an active approach to climate change. The Fuso Canter Eco-Hybrids use up to 30% less fuel in city driving leading to a 30% reduction in CO2 emissions. Braking energy is retained and fed back into the battery system, making the Hybrids even more efficient and less fuel dependent.
Officially launching the Star Track Express ‘Green’ Hybrid Fleet, the Minister, Martin Ferguson said:
“Reducing fuel use will actually reduce operational costs, so this initiative is not only good for business, it is exceptionally good for the environment. By investing in hybrid trucks, Star Track Express is improving our energy efficiency and air quality while supporting sustainable economic growth, all of which are wonderful outcomes for the whole Australian community. All associated with this project are to be commended for their leadership. I applaud Star Track Express and their clients for being ahead of the game. On behalf of the government, it’s smart to be associated with the smart Green initiative of the companies present here today.”
Star Track Express CEO, Derek Lightfoot said: “This is a very positive step for us, making a real contribution to the problem of climate change. These Star Track Express ‘Green Hybrids’ will make a difference and we hope that others in our industry follow our lead.”
Star Track Express’ Diesel Eco-Hybrids can have the most immediate impact by reducing air pollution in the cities –where it is most critical and by reducing climate change causes by using less oil resources.
