The benefits of
saving fuel
Reduce Fuel
Bills
It's simple: saving fuel ultimately saves
you £££s. Slight improvements in fuel
efficiency might not seem like they
would make much of a difference, but
when that slight improvement is scaled
over a large number of vehicles, the
results could add up to a big saving on
the company fuel bill.
With our simple tips you could realise
savings of up to 25% on fuel
consumption. For a large fleet that could
easily equal £10,000's worth of savings
on your annual fuel bill.
By using fuelcards you could
take control of your fleet's fuel
bill whether one vehicle or one
thousand.
Fuel consumption by road vehicles is
estimated to account for 22% of the
UK's total emissions of carbon dioxide
(CO2), a major contributor to climate
change. By employing fuel efficient
driving techniques, the total emissions
caused by road transportation could
be massively reduced.
Through simple measures your
company could significantly reduce its
carbon footprint. For example, by
regularly checking air filters and
replacing clogged filters, you can
improve fuel economy by up to 10%.
And by avoiding high speeds you
could see an even greater saving. As
little as 5mph (12kmph) can affect
fuel economy by up to 23%. All this
means reductions in emissions.

Save Time On
Filling Up
By using more fuel you by necessity
need to fill up more often. Driving to
find a station, filling up and getting
back on route all takes time and
ultimately means less time spent on
business.
In the world of business, the old
saying goes: 'time is money'. If your
drivers could use less fuel, and fill up
less often, they would have more
minutes and hours in the day to spend
doing their job. And when profit
margins are tight, this can equal
further cost improvements.
