Transportation & Logistics 2030

Transportation & Logistics 2030 - Volume 1: How will supply chains evolve in an energy-constrained, low-carbon world?

Transportation & Logistics 2030 represents a series of Delphi studies on the future of the industry. The first issue is a multi-faceted analysis of the ramifications of energy scarcity and its impact on the design of future supply chains. We examine how the cost of energy and emissions, changes in consumer behaviour and the evolution of transport modes are set to reshape supply chains.
