The SmartWay Logistics Tool is intended to help logistics companies estimate and assess their carbon, PM, and NOx emission performance levels as well as their total emissions associated with goods movement in the U.S. freight rail and trucking sectors, with a greater degree of sophistication than was possible with previous SmartWay tools. The new SmartWay truck carrier emissions performance data that EPA has included in the tool, along with publically available Class I rail CO2 data, will allow logistics companies to generate more accurate emissions performance estimates and mass emissions inventories. The tool will allow logistics companies to track their freight-related emissions performance from year to year, and also help optimize their emissions performance by allowing them to better estimate the emissions impact of individual carriers. |
