Abstract:

Reducing fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions is becoming increasingly important in the

United States, and new legislation can be expected in the near future that will affect trucks either

directly or indirectly. This work is a qualitative examination of operational strategies for reducing

fuel consumption from freight trucking, and also compares them with vehicular strategies. A focus is

placed on who implements, benefits from, and pays for each strategy, and what type of trucking each

strategy is applicable to.
