**Updated** Smartrak Insights - Sustainability

Emissions Profile

The Emissions Tab, the newest addition to the Smartrak Insights Platform. This tab showcases the average vehicle CO2 emissions (measured in kg) for a selected period and traces CO2 emissions and distance covered by various vehicle engine types over time.

The presented data can assist fleet managers in overseeing and optimising CO2 emissions of their fleet. The Emissions Profile is aligned with the Ministry for the Environment — Manatū Mō Te Taiao’s “Emissions reporting workbook”, and our existing “Vehicle Emission Report” available via Reporting in the Smartrak Admin site. Please note that this report in Smartrak Admin is only available for NZ customers.

Benefits

• Save time! The use of graphical reporting minimises the time needed for analysing numerical emissions reports.

• Save money! The use of tailored data can effectively promote the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs).

Prerequisites

• Customer to assign vehicles to appropriate groups in Smartrak Admin. Note that all insights reports require groups to be created and vehicles assigned via Smartrak Admin, in order to access.

How to interpret the data

The left y axis of the graph measures the amount of CO2 emissions (kg) and is displayed on the graph as a black line

The right y axis of the graph measures the distance travelled (x1000 km) and is displayed on the graph as the coloured bars which are divided by engine type: ICE, HEV, PHEV, EV

The x axis is the date range

Open

On the right-hand side of the graph are the totals:

• Total CO2 emissions for selected vehicles

• Total number of selected vehicles

• Average CO2 per period

• Total distance travelled by selected vehicles
