Recommendation

Calculating …

The best option is derived automatically from all selected transport modes after the distance calculation.

Breakdown of CO₂e into upstream chain (Well-to-Tank) – extraction and provision of the energy carrier – and operation (Tank-to-Wheel).

Upstream (WTT)–

EN 16258, GLEC and ISO 14083 require both shares to be reported separately. To the methodology →

Estimated air pollutants for the selected scenario – guide values, not audited values.

Auditable pollutant and particulate balances per HBEFA/ISO 14083 are available in the .

Same route, just a different mode: the distance stays identical, the emission factor and modal logic change – so you immediately see the cheapest alternative.

Emissions per leg of the route – when Multimodal is active, with its own mode per leg (e.g. truck · ferry · truck).

The page focuses on three things: fast data entry, clear results and transparent comparison of different scenarios.

Map & distance

Present the lane cleanly, both visually and numerically.

Comparison

Diesel, HVO100 and alternative transport modes side by side.

Less text up top, more focus on the tool and the result.

Notes on the logic

  • The calculation is a practical preliminary estimate, not a certified ESG report.
  • Pallets are converted at a default of 0.50 t per pallet. This value can be adjusted.
  • Utilization acts as an efficiency lever: lower utilization increases emissions per transported tonne.
  • HVO100 is modeled as a significantly lower-emission scenario, but works best as a comparison and sales argument.
