Abstract

This research aimed to analyze the effect on energy saving of trucks in the transport and logistics business by monitoring and evaluating truck drivers. A sample of seventy-four 10-wheel trucks was selected. Fuel consumption data was collected from drivers as they operated their vehicles using GPS systems. The results suggested a total reduction of fuel consumption with improved fuel consumption rates. Annual mileage affected better energy saving: trucks with high annual mileage were more capable of reducing fuel consumption than those with low mileage. The effect on energy-saving was 0.16 ktoe per year, suggesting a cost saving of 5.8 million baht per year.
