Kartläggning av förändringen i klimatpåverkan för en fordonsflotta

From the year 2018 to 2020 Uppsala Skolfastigheter AB changed their vehicle fleet to follow Uppsala municipality’s goal of a fossil-fuel-free vehicle fleet. Fossil-fuel-free, according to the municipality’s regulations, means that a vehicle can run on fossil-free fuel. To evaluate Skolfastigheter’s initiative, this report will examine both the change in greenhouse gas emissions as well as the usage of fossil-free fuel from the year 2018 to the year 2020. The report will also evaluate what the most appropriate fuel for Skolfastigheter’s vehicle fleet is. The results showed that even though the vehicle fleet had used more fuel and traveled longer distances, the levels of greenhouse gas emissions were lower in the year 2020 than the previous two years. To compare different fuels the greenhouse gas emissions were calculated as GWP (Global warming potential) and divided by megajoule (MJ). The two fossil-free fuels, HVO100 and biogas, had the lowest quotient compared to diesel, bio diesel and petrol. The usage of fossil-free fuel increased from 35 % to 89 % between the years 2018 and 2020. As the fossil-free fuels have the lowest GWP/MJ quotient, the increasing use of these could be one of the main reasons that the greenhouse gas emissions were lower in 2020 than in both 2018 and 2019. A method was created in order to properly evaluate the fuel types mentioned in this article. Five criterions were chosen to classify the fuels; If the fuel was fossil free, its greenhouse gas emissions [GWP100/MJ], its accessibility outside urban Uppsala, and its affordability [kr/MJ]. The criterions were also weighed differently in accordance with Skolfastigheter’s request. The compared fuels were diesel, bio diesel, petrol, biogas and HVO100 as these are the ones that Skolfastigheter have used in the examined time frame of 2018 to 2020. The fuel should also be applicable to the vehicles Skolfastigheter have. With this method HVO100 was concluded to be the most appropriate fuel, however, the biogas is locally produced and more affordable which can make it more appropriate. The conclusion was that, for Skolfastigheter, gas vehicles should use biogas and diesel-powered vehicles should use HVO100. Från år 2018 till 2020 har ett aktivt arbete utförts av Uppsala Skolfastigheter AB för att i linjemed de kommunala miljömål som finns ha en fordonsflotta som är fossilfri enligt definitionerna fossilfri och förnyelsebara drivmedel.
