RAIL TRANSPORT
3.250 TRAINS GO GREEN
CFL cargo Deutschland has introduced 100% renewable, clean
electricity for all of its trains, thus enabling the environmentally
friendly operation of up to 3,250 block trains that circulate in
Germany each year.
By purchasing certified green electricity, supplied by
Stadtwerke Tübingen, rail transport becomes even more
sustainable. This measure is therefore another commitment towards
saving around 19,000 t of CO2 (compared to the average German
electricity mix).
CFL cargo Deutschland, located in Flensburg near the
German-Danish border, is a traction provider on the German and
Central European axis. The shift to exclusively green electricity
generated by wind and hydro assets is an important investment in
sustainable logistics in Europe, the carrier said.
