The partnership between ABB and its official founding and logistics partner, DHL, offers mutual benefits beyond the two companies, extending to their respective customers. Partners of each business, such as Formula E, benefit from ABB\u2019s energy-efficient technologies, data-driven insights, and service expertise integrated into DHL\u2019s value chain through digitally connected devices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Simultaneously, this strategic alliance paves the way for reducing the carbon footprint of ABB\u2019s products and services, contributing to more sustainable logistics and supply chain activities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Logistics represents a significant opportunity for reducing carbon dioxide emissions, as it underpins all products, services, and events through interconnected supply chains reliant on transportation and logistics. For example, transporting the championship\u2019s freight city to city is a monumental task. Nearly 450 tons of freight must be moved \u2013 sometimes as far as 17,000 kilometers in one go \u2013 around the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Transportation alone is responsible for 30 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions. As a result, ABB and DHL aim to optimize energy efficiency across the series\u2019 entire supply chain. Whether it involves enhancing transportation methods, streamlining logistics facilities, or adopting sustainable routes, their joint efforts can foster greater sustainability in the logistics industry. This collaboration contributes to a greener planet, benefiting all stakeholders involved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Manuela Gianni, Head of DHL Motorsport Italy, says: \u201cBy 2030, we will be investing seven billion dollars in sustainable logistics. Our partnership with Formula E has inspired us to come up with new, innovative solutions to be on par with what they want to achieve, which is a 100% renewable energy target for all events.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
