CRP Micro Logistics Hubs – Updates
28th November 2023 / Posted by Isidora Rivera VollmerHappy to see our CRP micro logistics hub trials in Pimlico and Wandsworth progress so well these last few months! You can find our most up-to-date insights below:
Wandsworth Micro Logistics Hub Trial (ending on 21/02/24)
Positive impact after 2 months of operations:
- Average of 163 daily parcels (fresh flowers) being moved via the hub
- 2,208 kilometres (1,260 miles) travelled by electric vans
- Total emissions reduction of 191 kg of CO2, 941 g of NOx, and 22 g of PM2.5
- Translated into more tangible examples, by using our CRP Clean Air Tool, this would mean:
-
- CO2 emissions from 3 football pitch-sized forest fires
- NOx emissions equivalent to what 29 people emit in one day
- 0.5 sycamore maple trees required to filter out these PM2.5 emissions
- More information on the hub found here.
Pimlico Micro Logistics Hub Trial (ending on 31/12/23)
Positive impact after 7 months of operations:
- The e-cargo bikes have travelled a total of 17,321 km (10,763 miles) so far
- Total emissions reduction of 3,260 kg of CO2, 13,054 g of NOx, and 215 g of PM2.5 when compared to polluting van deliveries (calculations by Delivery Mates’ in-house emissions tool)
- Translated into more tangible examples, by using our CRP Clean Air Tool, this would mean:
-
- CO2 emissions from 66 football pitch-sized forest fires
- NOx emissions equivalent to what 396 people emit in one day
- 4.8 sycamore maple trees required to filter out these PM2.5 emissions
- More information on the hub found here.
