Volvo FH Aero gas-powered trucks
to its fleet—the company's firstvehicles to operate on bio-LNG (liquefied natural gas). These
trucks will run 24/7, covering 300,000 km annually
between Chepstow and Yorkshire.
The decision follows a successful trial proving the fuel efficiency of
Volvo's FH Aero design, achieving 10 mpg performance. The
trucks will refuel at a new biomethane facility, built by ViGo
Bioenergy, which supplies waste-based bio-LNG with up to 79% carbon
savings.
Volvo's Camera Monitoring System replaces traditional
mirrors to improve visibility, and the trucks come with advanced driver
assistance and safety features. Each vehicle is backed by a Volvo
Gold maintenance contract for maximum uptime.
This move supports Uniserve’s commitment to sustainability and significantly
reduces fleet emissions, reinforcing its position as a leading UK
logistics provider.
