TRANSPORTATION

Triboron's technology can lower the fuel consumption of a combustion engine by up to ten percent. Friction in the engine is reduced with a boron-based lubricant added to the fuel.

Increasing volumes of railway transports in the world require refurbishment and mainenance of hundreds of thousands of carriages. Trainparts Sweden AB has unique experience and competence.

Moisture damage on container shipments costs billions every year. Absortech's moisture protection systems absorb moisture in the containers, saving the products and reducing the waste.

Laser-welded lightweight structures can make aircraft engines much lighter without compromising strength. The technology saves fuel and reduces emissions, and the developer, GKN Aerospace, expects it to have a lot of traction.

Underground electric loaders improve operational costs, eliminate noise and diesel emissions and minimize the need for underground ventilation. Atlas Copco's new battery powered loaders match the power of diesel loaders, and offer smart automated functions.

GARO markets turnkey solutions for electrical installations and solar power, and holds more than half of the Nordic EV charger market.

The shipping company Furetank is making their fleet more environment friendly and sustainable through a range of measures, e.g. adopting LNG (liquid natural gas) as fuel. The new vessels will emit less, reduce climate impact and provide competitive advantage.

When transport solutions are purchased, environmental impact is just one of many parameters to consider, and in lack of regulations and minimum standards it is not always the first priority. Nevertheless, sustainable logistics is developing quickly: DSV Road, for instance, has reduced emissions substantially thanks to optimizations and biofuels.

A new kind of car insurance has individual premiums per km based on driving style. Real-time measurements of how the vehicle is operated gives a "digital DNA" for each driver - a value that takes energy efficiency and road safety into account. The technology platform gathers data and connects with the driver's phone and the cloud to provide visualization and feedback.
