BSR Future of Fuels Spring Forum: What Will It Take to Scale Low-Carbon Fuels? Launch of the Sustainable Fuel Buyers’ Principles (Room 204)

01 May 17
3:45 PM - 5:30 PM

Tracks: Medium- & Heavy-Duty Commercial Vehicles, Urban Fleet Mobility

Sustainable fuels and related technologies are increasingly critical to business success. But which fuels are sustainable and how do they scale? BSR will lead a discussion on the newly launched Sustainable Fuel Buyers’ Principles. Developed by BSR’s Future of Fuels members, including UPS, Walmart, and Amazon, the Fuel Principles are designed to increase the availability of sustainable, low-carbon fuels by: 1) signaling the magnitude of business demand, 2) clarifying sustainability criteria needed for uptake, and 3) encouraging partnerships and pilots with suppliers. BSR’s Future of Fuels works with its corporate members and more than 600 stakeholders to improve fuel choices as a critical piece of the global freight agenda, and ultimately to drive a sustainable transition to sustainable commercial freight.
