HomeStudy to assess and analyse the impact of e-commerce driven transport and parcel delivery on air pollution and CO2 emissions
Final report
Metadata for publikationen
Over the past decade, the share of e-commerce has risen. It is expected that this trend will continue. Bricks and mortar (B&M) retailers have reacted to the increasing share of e-commerce retail leading to an increasing merger of both retail modes into an omnichannel retail. These shifts in retail channels are inevitably accompanied by changes in the transport system. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to assess the environmental impact of e-commerce along the value chain compared with B&M retail. To assess the environmental impacts of both retail modes, each single transport leg relevant for either the e-commerce or the B&M transport chain needed to be examined individually. Therefore, a transport chain analysis was carried out in the first step. In a second step, a modelling tool was established to calculate the environmental impact of each leg. In a third step, this modelling tool was used to calculate the environmental impact of real-life case studies The results of the case studies show a large bandwidth of reduction potentials of GHG emissions. Mitigation measures could be identified with various supporting measures. However, these measures can only address certain parts of the supply chain and are not open to all stakeholders. Therefore, a comprehensive effort is needed to bring all involved stakeholders together and combine measures suited for different local circumstances.
