    NTEX nya lager i Göteborg öppnar

    Den 1 september slog NTEX upp dörrarna till sitt nya lager i Syrhåla, i Göteborg. Den drygt 21 000 m2 toppmoderna fastigheten är miljöklassad i allt ifrån ventilation, ljudmiljö, solceller och laddstationer till speditionsbolagets ellastbilar.

    More Carbon Neutral Transport with Two New Electric Trucks

    We recently acquired two new Volvo FH Electrics directly from the Volvo Trucks factory in Gothenburg. Both of these will be used for the distribution of general cargo in the Gothenburg region.
    This investment is another step in our ongoing sustainability efforts, which we are putting more and more resources into.
    As a provider of logistics services, we have an obligation to minimise the nega

    Klimatarbetet viktigt när Lagerhaus valde NTEX i Helsingborg

    I dagarna öppnar NTEX ett nytt, toppmodernt logistikcenter vid Långeberga i Helsingborg, nära hamnen, E4 och E6. Etableringen är en del av den framtidssatsning företaget nu gör för att kunna erbjuda ännu effektivare och mer hållbara logistiklösningar. På Lagerhaus, som är en av NTEX största kunder, ser man mycket positivt på hur verksamheten i Helsingborg utvecklas.

    Do People Realise the Unimaginable Amounts of Electricity Needed to Power the Merchant Fleet?

    200 million tonnes of oil or diesel.
    That's what the global merchant fleet uses every year to power its ships. In order to replace this with electricity, we would need some 5,500 terawatt-hours (TWh) each year. That corresponds to roughly 580,000 onshore wind turbines or 800 nuclear power plants. This data comes from Intertanko, which represents shipping lines in the tanker segment.

  • How Can the Swedish Transport Administration Launch a New Traffic Management System Right Before Christmas?

    How Can the Swedish Transport Administration Launch a New Traffic Management System Right Before Christmas?

    Bear with me, but I must express my amazement at the Transport Administration’s poor planning. Two weeks before Christmas, this government agency deems it necessary to switch to a completely new traffic management system. Again, two weeks before Sweden’s by far most complicated travel holiday.
    How is this even possible?
    Everyone knows that switching IT systems in almost any area can be a ver

    8,000 Wind Turbines on an Area Larger Than Gotland Required for LKAB's Fossil-Free Steel by 2040

    We at NTEX support a transition away from fossil fuels and are in favour of alternative energy sources. However, those of you who read my blog know that I personally am not a great advocate of wind power.
    There are loads of things that can and should be questioned, not least when it comes to the wind farms that have been built, are being built, or are being planned to be built. By chance, I cam

  • Is the Electric Car One of the Biggest Mistakes in World History?

    Is the Electric Car One of the Biggest Mistakes in World History?

    I'm one of those who really want and hope that Sweden will succeed in achieving the goal of a fossil-free vehicle fleet as early as 2030.
    Right now, the loudest voices in the Western World are saying that the future of vehicle transport is electric, both for passenger cars and for commercial traffic. This is the direction taken by political decisions, for example, and it is also the one most of

  • Reduce the tax on biofuels!

    Reduce the tax on biofuels!


    For those of us who work with transport, it’s very difficult to keep up with the skyrocketing fuel prices. Especially if you, like NTEX, aim to reduce the company’s carbon footprint by for example refuelling with HVO (hydrotrerated vegetable oil).
    When this biofuel, which reduces CO2 emissions by up to 90%, costs several crowns more per litre than regular diesel, it sends out a strange sig

  • Can Companies with Production in China Really Claim to Be Climate Neutral by 2040?

    Can Companies with Production in China Really Claim to Be Climate Neutral by 2040?

    Nowadays, hardly a day goes by without hearing something about sustainability or reducing carbon emissions.
    Some companies even claim that their operations will generate zero emissions by 2040.
    In some cases, I think that's achievable.
    But when global giants with production in China make these claims, I wonder.
    The question is whether it's even possible to achieve zero emissions when y

    Increased Costs Create Change

    – BUT WE MUST STOP INVESTING IN WIND POWER

    The pandemic and soaring prices for both electricity and fossil fuels have been at the forefront of Swedish news coverage at the start of 2022. There is every reason to believe that the year will continue in this vein, almost certainly leading to an overall price increase and inflation.
    More and more people will have to economise and tighten th
