IRU Green Compact Survey Report 2025
IRU Green Compact Survey Report 2025

This IRU Intelligence Briefing, the first of its kind, provides a unique examination of commercial road transport operators’ decarbonisation efforts in Australia, Central Asia, Europe, Mexico and Türkiye.

The findings offer a nuanced perspective on both progress and challenges as operators navigate the road to net-zero. They provide a global overview of progress, mapping regional readiness and enabling conditions, as well as practical levers to decarbonise efficiently.

Operators worldwide are deeply concerned about decarbonisation, mainly due to cost recovery uncertainties, limited customer willingness to pay higher prices, and a complex regulatory landscape.

Despite these concerns, the industry is moving forward, with a strong recognition of the importance of decarbonisation for future investment.

To decarbonise efficiently, the total cost of ownership must be at the heart of the transition.

 

Who is it for?

  • Sustainability and fleet managers to benchmark decarbonisation actions, discover best practices, lower TCO, gear up for upcoming regulations, and plan investments.
  • Procurement managers to explore insights for cutting emissions from contracted transport services, leveraging policies, and optimising routes and loads.
  • Marketing and product managers to validate product-market fit, gain deeper insights into regional differences, and craft compelling sustainability narratives.
  • Public authorities to understand challenges facing operators, address infrastructure gaps, and establish the enabling conditions and incentives needed to accelerate change.

 

What is it for?

  • Benchmark your decarbonisation progress
  • Anticipate market trends and evolutions
  • Establish the enabling conditions and practical solutions
  • Assess impact of new policies and dynamics
  • Make informed future-oriented decisions

 

Empower your decisions with the latest insights into operators’ decarbonisation journeys and the enabling conditions required – plan smartly, invest wisely.
