The use of trucks in the European Union is an essential component of the supply chain, ensuring the transportation of goods from manufacturers to consumers. The European Union has set ambitious targets for emission reductions, banning internal combustion engines, and transitioning to climate neutrality, including offering various programs to promote the use of more environmentally friendly transport solutions, such as electromobility and alternative fuel usage. Trucks often play a key role in the broader logistics chain during freight transportation. In this phase, it is crucial that cargo is transported while adhering to safety requirements and complying with all legal regulations and industry standards. Recent years have also highlighted the need for everyone to change their mindset and usage habits, aligning with sustainable and environmentally friendly practices. This includes addressing issues such as fuel efficiency (selecting and using high fuel efficiency vehicles and alternative fuel types for freight transportation), as well as planning emission reductions by implementing measures to reduce CO2 emissions and other harmful pollutants. The purpose of this article is to conduct an economic analysis of the use of trucks in supply routes.
