sales@autoguardtracking.comPrices for gas and diesel are going through the roof everywhere. This is partly because the world is getting better after the COVID-19 pandemic and partly because of Russia's war in Ukraine. The price of taxes, crude oil, a country's purchasing power, tax incentives, the currency exchange as well as other issues all contribute to the final sticker price of a gallon of gas or a gallon of diesel.All of these things are hard to plan for, so it's hard to know what the costs will be from month to month and make a good budget.
Volatile fuel costs can have a significant impact on daily operations, make long-term preparation of a fleet difficult, and threaten the financial viability of organizations that rely on fleets and mobility for revenue. It's for this reason that an increasing number of fleets are adopting telematics and management systems to monitor fuel consumption and identify opportunities for savings.
One of the main reasons why saving fuel is so important is that it helps bring down the overall cost of running a business. As a major operational expense, fuel can consume as much as 60% of a business' fleet budget. Frost & Sullivan, a well-known global research firm, said in a report that fleets that use telematics devices can expect their fuel costs to go down by up to 25%. Fleets of all sizes and in all industries have been shown to be able to save a lot of money on fuel. These savings can be used in other fleet-related areas, and customers are likely to feel the benefits, which makes them more loyal and keeps them around
Fuel savings are important not only because they save money, but also because they reduce harmful carbon dioxide emissions that come from using a lot of fuel. Carbon emissions hurt the environment in a detrimental way. Why is that, though? When greenhouse gasses, like the carbon dioxide that cars and trucks put into the air, are released into the atmosphere, they trap the heat from the sun. This makes the average global temperature rise. We call this "global warming." This heat or radiation formation should be going into space, but that isn't happening
When temperatures get warmer, weather patterns change, which upsets the natural balance of things. Not only does this make the planet hotter, but it also causes stronger storms, more drought, less food production, a rising ocean due to melting ice sheets, the loss of species that are important for biodiversity, and more diseases (such as malaria). Extremely high greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide are harmful to both the environment and human health due to the increased air pollution they generate.
The transportation sector is contributing 28.9% of the total emissions worldwide.. How much CO₂ a car puts out is directly related to how much gas it uses. The EPA estimates that the annual carbon dioxide emissions from the average modern vehicle are 4.6 tons.For every mile driven, 404 grams of CO₂ are put into the air. When it comes to freight trucks, for example, they release 161.8 grams of CO₂ per ton-mile.
Countries, businesses, and people all over the world are looking closely at their carbon footprints and trying to find ways to reduce them. Environmental goals are being set by governments all over the world.
Most of these targets fall into one of two groups:
Saving fuel can help you save money on your fleet costs and reduce your carbon footprint. The Autoguard tracking system has fuel management experts who can give you brief ideas about fuel efficiency in fleet management.
As drivers drive too many miles, they use a lot of fuel, so by taking the help of the autoguard fleet management system, the excessive loss of fuel can be controlled by the drivers. Long stretches of driving may be unavoidable in certain circumstances. But if measures are taken to reduce these miles, the cost of fuel and the wear and strain on fleet cars can be reduced, saving money in the long run. As a bonus, it can cut down on the frequency with which you are required to buy brand-new automobiles and the amount you spend on maintenance. Saving fuel thus saves money while simultaneously benefiting the environment.
In conclusion, saving on fuel is important for your fleet because:
