In 2022 diesel prices skyrocketed by over 40% in South Africa. There were multiple reasons – local and global – for this increase, from the ongoing war in Ukraine, pandemic driven manufacturing and supply chain slowdowns, the fluctuating rand and never-ending taxes and levies. This would have hit businesses where it hurt, increasing operational costs and decreasing profits.
While there is nothing that can be done about the price of diesel, there are ways to manage fuel efficiency and consumption.
FUEL EFFICIENT EQUIPMENT
Fuel efficiency is more than just the fuel used by your machinery, it’s a measure of productivity and fuel consumed.
However, there are other factors that will affect your fuel efficiency:
