2024 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT Targeting Efficiency 13 Improving fuel efficiency by 20% by 2030 With a fleet of 538 trucks, fuel efficiency presents a key opportunity to reduce Scope 1 emissions and lower transportation costs. Since 2021, Liberty has focused on fleet efficiency, making progress in several areas, including driver safety—reflected in our Preventable Vehicle Accident Rate (PVAR) —route optimization, and improved fuel economy. In 2024, we refined our focus specifically on fuel efficiency by leveraging the technology available through the implementation of Samsara. Samsara is a fleet management platform that uses GPS tracking and telematics to monitor vehicle performance, fuel usage, and driver behavior. This fleet technology advancement enabled us to take our original goal—improving fleet efficiency by 30% by 2032—better defining it into a more actionable and high-impact target: improving fuel efficiency by 20% by 2030. We will measure the progress of this goal using miles per gallon (MPG). With Samsara providing updated MPG metrics, we now have more precise tracking and goal setting, allowing us to make data-driven improvements. To achieve this goal, we will prioritize idle time reduction, driver habit coaching, and route optimization. In 2024, Liberty took a major step in fuel efficiency by actively tracking and reducing idle time across our fleet. Through monthly tracking, targeted coaching, and one-on-one sessions with transportation managers, we reduced idle time by 7.78% over the course of 2024. This effort saved over 12,000 gallons of diesel, cutting costs and lowering emissions. The success of this initiative demonstrates the power of data-driven strategies and focused coaching in improving fleet performance. 2024: 6.86 MPG Goal 2030: 8.23 MPG FUEL EFFICIENCY HIGHLIGHTS
