The global energy price shock: What it means for trucking

online | IRU event

Energy price shocks directly impact operating costs and freight rates.

This IRU webinar gives operators, shippers and policymakers a global picture of how energy prices have evolved since February 2026, how governments are responding, and what it means for total cost of ownership (TCO), freight rates and supply security.

What to expect:

  • Energy price trends across diesel, petrol, LNG/CNG, electricity and hydrogen, covering Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa, the Middle East and CIS
  • A country-by-country mapping of national support measures, including price caps, subsidies, tax and excise cuts, and direct aid to operators
  • A TCO impact analysis by powertrain – diesel, LNG, battery-electric and hydrogen
  • Insight into how fuel cost increases are passed through to freight rates
  • A state-of-play on stock levels, supply dependencies and early-warning signals for shortage risk
  • Live Q&A with IRU experts
