Economically efficient green logistics through cyber physical systems

通过网络物理系统实现经济高效的绿色物流。该项目旨在通过研究如何经济高效地使用液化天然气(LNG)运行柴油动力重型牛奶车，并向物流公司演示LNG转换将降低运营成本和排放，实现绿色物流。运输系统占澳大利亚碳排放的18%，柴油动力物流车辆是主要贡献者。然而，将这些卡车转换为液化天然气需要强有力的证据，才能让物流公司相信转向绿色物流的好处。物流生产率的提高预计将使澳大利亚的国内生产总值增加20亿美元，同时这项研究还应该提供关于可持续性问题和液化天然气转化率的重要数据。

Economically efficient green logistics through cyber physical systems. This project aims to realize green logistics by researching how to run diesel-powered heavy-duty milk trucks economically and efficiently on liquefied natural gas (LNG) and demonstrating to logistics companies that LNG conversion will reduce operating costs and emissions. Transportation systems account for 18% of Australia's carbon emissions, and diesel-powered logistics vehicles are a major contributor. However, converting these trucks to LNG requires strong evidence to convince logistics companies of the benefits of shifting to green logistics. An increase in logistics productivity is expected to increase Australia’s gross domestic product by $2 billion, while this research should also provide vital data on sustainability issues and LNG conversions.
