Werner Enterprises (Nasdaq: WERN), a premier transportation and
logistics provider, announced its inclusion as a 2023 Top Green
Fleet by Heavy Duty Trucking. The recognition highlights Werner’s
commitment to reducing its carbon emissions by innovating its
operations, fleet and technology.
"We are honored to be included among this list of companies
addressing and finding solutions combating the transportation
industry’s carbon impacts,” said Senior Vice President of the
One-Way Truckload Network, Chad Dittberner. “This award from Heavy
Duty Trucking is a great validation of our efforts as we build a
scalable sustainability framework. We continue investing in and
identifying new opportunities to reduce emissions and create long
lasting, industry-wide impacts.”
Werner has committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by
55 percent by 2035. The company is actively piloting and testing
sustainable truck models, alternative energy and fuel options, and
other solutions to increase fuel efficiency and drive reductions in
engine idling. Werner’s 2023 and 2024 goals are focused on the
reporting and continued testing of new strategies to further reduce
greenhouse gas emissions.
“Our team at Werner has already made great investments and
changes to address our carbon footprint; however, we recognize the
need for continued progress and new goals to truly make an impact
as one of the largest trucking companies in North America,” said
Associate Vice President of Sustainability and Sales Operations,
Shawntell Kroese. “We continue to look for additional opportunities
to improve our sustainability efforts, which will help us, as well
as our customers, reach environmental goals.”

leaders in sustainability efforts across all sizes and types of
trucking fleets. Areas analyzed include fleet electrification,
alternative and renewable fuels, cleaner-burning engines, fuel
efficiency, freight efficiency, ‘green’ facilities and testing new
sustainable technologies. Companies are recognized based on their
green fleet efforts, improved sustainability and environmental

initiatives for 2022 and 2023.
Nominations for the awards program were made by Heavy Duty
Trucking providers and reviewed by the publication’s staff. All
