ATDL and Molgas promote emission-free heavy transport with bioGNL

As the world increasingly turns its attention to sustainability, the logistics and transportation sectors are undergoing rapid transformations. In a significant move towards greener operations, Almacenaje y Total Distribución Logística SL (ATDL) has partnered with Molgas Energy Group, marking a pivotal moment in the journey toward emission-free heavy transport. This collaboration aims to harness the potential of bioGNL, a renewable fuel, to revolutionize logistics across international fleets.
ATDL and Molgas join forces for sustainable logistics
ATDL, a leader in sustainable logistics solutions, has recently formed a strategic alliance with Molgas Energy Group. This partnership is designed to accelerate the transition to a transport system that is free from emissions. By integrating bioGNL into their logistics operations, both companies are setting a precedent for future transport practices.
As a result of this collaboration, parts of ATDL's fleet that service Carrefour will start using bioGNL with a mass balance approach. This innovative practice is expected to achieve net-zero emissions for their logistical routes. The bioGNL being utilized comes with a certification of traceability, ensuring that the origins and sustainability of the fuel are guaranteed. This initiative represents a substantial step forward in the decarbonization of the transportation sector, complementing ATDL's existing use of GNL, GNC, HVO, and electricity.
The European Union's new RED III Directive imposes stricter sustainability requirements for renewable fuels, thus encouraging initiatives like those of ATDL and Molgas. The regulatory landscape is becoming increasingly demanding, pushing the sector toward carbon-neutral operations, enhanced efficiency, and a deeper commitment to environmental sustainability.
Molgas Energy Group's leadership in renewable energy
Molgas Energy Group has established itself as a leader in the energy transition across several countries, including Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Greece, and Norway. The company facilitates the energy transition by providing solutions such as biomethane, enabling logistics firms to conduct international routes with a focus on sustainability and competitiveness.
- Leadership in renewable energy solutions across multiple European countries.
- Focus on biomethane as a sustainable alternative for logistics.
- Partnerships with logistics companies to ensure sustainable operations.
Innovative strategies for a sustainable future
The strategy adopted by ATDL is multifaceted, incorporating technological innovation, energy diversification, and intersectoral collaboration. This approach not only minimizes environmental impact but also adds value for clients like Carrefour and enhances the overall market competitiveness.
By investing in clean energy, ATDL and Molgas are becoming benchmarks for the ongoing transformation of the European logistics landscape. The collaboration underscores the idea that transitioning to a sustainable future is achievable when companies unite their efforts and adopt effective technologies.
Renewable fuel: A key player in clean operations
The partnership between ATDL and Molgas highlights that transitioning to cleaner energy sources in the heavy transport sector is indeed possible. Utilizing bioGNL, which is certified and adheres to a mass balance approach, serves as a prime example of how logistics operations can be both competitive and environmentally responsible.
This initiative reflects the commitment of both companies to foster a future in logistics that is cleaner, more efficient, and fundamentally sustainable. With renewable energies, innovation, and sector collaboration, the path towards emission-free heavy transport is not just a vision; it is becoming a reality.
