Episode 16 | The Leadership Series: How Sovereign Speed Is Turning Emissions Strategy into Action
In this episode of Smart Freight Conversations: The Leadership Series, Moritz Tölke, Director for Green Projects at Sovereign Speed, shares how a medium-sized carrier is driving meaningful climate action without waiting for perfect conditions.
Moritz breaks down how Sovereign Speed:
- Is deploying HVO100 and scaling fleet electrification
- Uses primary fuel data instead of modeled estimates
- Builds trust with LSPs and shippers through transparent collaboration
- Tracks performance against science-based targets (SBTi)
- Actively contributes to Smart Freight Centre initiatives like Book & Claim, MBM, and sustainable procurement
This episode highlights how real decarbonization happens at the intersection of partnership, standards, and operational accountability, especially when the carriers themselves take the lead.
