What 10 million kilometres of real-world data confirms about the business case for solar
Ten million kilometres is a lot of road. It’s long-haul routes through Lithuania in January. Distribution runs in Denmark in November. Intercity coaches crossing Austria in March. Real vehicles, real drivers, real weather – measured day after day, across 132 vehicles, 16 fleet operators, several OEM brands, and 9 countries. Across every single kilometre, the same thing happened: solar reduced fuel […]
Install once. Save for years. The investment case for vehicle-mounted solar.
The International Energy Agency recently published a striking finding. A single container ship carrying solar panels can provide the means to generate as much electricity as the coal carried by more than 100 ships of the same size. The reason is simple. Coal gets burned once, and then it is gone. Solar panels, once installed, […]
Solar belongs in every fleet’s fuel strategy – whatever the drivetrain
Blaguss Group is rolling out solar across their fleet of diesel and electric coaches after a pilot delivered clear savings. Green Energy Group says every coach operator should be doing the same. Solar is a game-changer for bus fleet operators. That’s the conclusion of Paul Blaguss, CEO of Blaguss Group, after a successful 6-month pilot with Green Energy vehicle-mounted solar systems. The pilot delivered savings of 1,616 to 2,052 litres of diesel per bus per year – equivalent […]
Fogtmann solar pilot cuts fuel and strengthens sustainability leadership
A four-month pilot using Green Energy ‘s solar systems demonstrated more than 1,000 litres of diesel saved per truck per year, an annual CO2 reduction of 2.7t per truck and a 10-month payback period. Fogtmann is now exploring how solar can support its 70-vehicle fleet. Pushing ahead with practical and sustainable solutions Fogtmann Group, part of Blue Logistics, has […]

Solar is now a key part of Schröer Transporte’s fleet. By using CO₂-neutral energy, they’re extending battery life, reducing fuel use and cutting idling. Drivers enjoy longer runtime on comfort systems, and the company sees around 0.8 L/100 km in savings. It’s a solution they plan to install on all vehicles and happily recommend to […]
Fuel Savings and Fast Payback Drives DEKRA’s 60-Truck Solar Rollout
Dekra Denmark has expanded a five-vehicle pilot to a 60-truck solar rollout after seeing clear fuel savings and a fast, one-to-two-year payback. The decision supports Dekra’s five per cent annual fuel-reduction target and wider SBTi-aligned sustainability goals, while requiring no operational changes to its intensive driver-training fleet. The full case outlines Dekra’s results, implementation experience and plans to expand solar across more vehicle types.
Solar solves twin problems of fuel cost and carbon emissions
With deep insight into European road operations, Christian Drenthen shares why scalable solar-on-vehicle technology is emerging as a practical way for fleet operators to achieve meaningful fuel savings, strengthen margins and reduce emissions with minimal disruption. European road transport is entering one of its most challenging decades yet. Operators are under pressure from all sides: […]
How solar for trucks delivers fuel savings, ROI and ESG value
In logistics, every percentage point counts, not just on the balance sheet, but in boardrooms, RFPs and sustainability reports As fuel optimisation becomes standard, the challenge is no longer just about reducing costs. It’s about proving it. Demonstrating year-on-year progress. Meeting climate commitments. Retaining your license to operate. And standing out in a sector under […]
