Fuel saving with eaglEdge – How much can be saved?
eaglEdge Fuel Management Systems are a tried & proven fuel saver. To date, fleets have reduced their fuel consumption by up to 18% with FuelGauge
For any long-haul haulage operator or coach company with regular scheduled routes, this can mean a saving of up to 1,000 litres per vehicle, per month.
These savings are translated directly into profits. See a very typical example below.
Hugely increase your profits by saving fuel
Fuel is the highest cost among European fleets, averaging 40 percent of total operating overheads.
For example, consider a haulage company with ten vehicles and operating costs of 1 million Euro per year. Typical profits for such a business would be around 5% in Year 1 (although the UK RHA published average road haulage profit figures of just 2.2% in 2006):
| Year 1 Fleet Overheads | €1,000,000 | |
| Year 1 Fuel Costs | € 400,000 | |
| Year 1 Profits | € 50,000 |
Now consider using FuelGauge to implement a cost saving initiative to cut fuel consumption by 10% in Year 2:
| Year 2 Fleet Overheads | €960,000 | ||
| Year 2 Fuel Costs | €400,000 | − €40,000 = €360,000 | |
| Year 2 Profits | € 50,000 |
+ €40,000 = €90,000 (up 80% on Year 1 profits) |
