“…There is increasing interest in the subject of transport energy consumption among researchers [ 42 , 43 , 44 ], especially focused on identifying and mitigating the economic and environmental effects of fuel consumption in transport systems [ 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 ]. Concerning research on the relationship between the economic dimension and energy consumption, the research mainly refers to the relationship between economic growth and energy consumption by transport (the research essentially refers to the issue of the decoupling paradigm) [ 49 , 50 , 51 ].…”

The research aimed to identify the directions of rationalization of the energy intensity of road freight transport in the context of the long-term balance of the drifting economy. The study was related to the case of Poland, and its scope spans 8.5 years. The long-term drift of the economy and shocks from the production process of the construction, industry, and processing sectors were taken into account in the research. In addition, the structural shocks were decomposed and validated. Twenty-one statistically significant multidirectional and varying relationships between the energy consumption of road transport and production in the construction, industry, and processing sectors were confirmed, including 7 long-term and 14 immediate relationships. The leakage of shocks in production has been demonstrated in the construction, industry, and processing sectors. The shock from the construction sector lowered the energy consumption of road transport in the long run. The greatest impact of the shock occurred only after 6–12 months and slowly stabilized after approximately 24 months. On the other hand, the shock in production in the industry and processing sectors reduced energy intensity in the short term but increased in the long term. The shocks in the industry and processing sectors transformed relatively quickly.

“…Specifically, heavy-duty trucks are essential to transport raw materials over long distances in open pit mining [ 3 ]. Overall, diesel-powered heavy-duty trucks dominate hauling in the mining industry [ 4 ]. In mineral carbon mining, mineral loading and hauling account for 40 % of the energy used to extract and process carbon and 41 % of the GHG emissions [ 5 ].…”

“…In large surface mining, hauling can account for up to 50 %–60 % of the total operating costs [ 2 ]. Mining production reports forecast that diesel consumption for hauling will remain a significant share of operating costs [ 4 ]. Consequently, assessing fuel consumption parameters to identify measures to improve fuel consumption can reduce operating costs and environmental impacts like GHG emissions from mining [ 4 , 6 ].…”

“…Vehicle level improvisations such as reducing aerodynamic and rolling resistance forces through improved vehicle body and tyre design and improving the efficiency of the propulsion drive-line have been investigated for enhanced heavy vehicle fuel efficiency and thereby reduced emissions [4], [5]. Use of alternative fuels, high-capacity articulated vehicles, and optimal planning of operating routes are some of the other strategies being explored for clean and sustainable heavy vehicle operation [6], [7].…”

Even though diesel-powered Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) are major contributors of greenhouse gas emission, HGV electrification is still in its infancy owing to various challenges. Costlier and heavier batteries and lack of charging infrastructure along long routes are the major bottlenecks in the realisation of HGV electrification for long-haul freight transportation. In this regard, adopting technologies that can make HGV electrification viable is vital to aid the transportation sector decarbonisation. Benefiting from approaches such as the use of overhead catenary power, and conforming to operate in a platoon formation, it would be possible to considerably reduce the cost of HGV electrification and make it economically feasible. Utilising overhead catenary infrastructure would result in requiring economical charging infrastructure, shorter charging cycles, and smaller batteries, while not compromising on the overall payload of HGVs. HGVs in platoon formation result in energy consumption reduction and increased traffic throughput. This paper investigates the benefits of using overhead catenary-powered electric HGVs for freight transportation and also explores the advantages associated with electric HGV platoon formations on the same. The feasibility analysis has been done with the support of close to real physics-based electric HGV models on realistic operating scenarios adopting an in-service highway drive cycle. From the analysis, electric HGV platooning using overhead catenary as the power source was found to be economical with ≈ 10.4% reduction in electricity cost when compared to without platooning while devising electrification strategies for long-haul freight transportation.
