Introduction: The Changing ESG Paradigm in the Logistics Industry


Introduction: The Changing ESG Paradigm in the Logistics Industry

In 2025, the global logistics industry faces unprecedented ESG management pressure. With the implementation of the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), the strengthening of Korea's K-Taxonomy, and the realization of Scope 3 emissions management requirements from major corporations, carbon emissions management in the transportation industry has become a matter of survival rather than choice.

Particularly in Korea, despite the legal requirement for Digital Tachograph (DTG) installation, most DTG devices merely store and submit driving records, failing to provide practical assistance for ESG management.

GLEC AI DTG was born to fill this market gap.


What is GLEC AI DTG?

GLEC AI DTG is a next-generation smart device that integrates legally mandated DTG functions with a precise carbon emissions management system based on ISO 14083 standards.

The name GLEC is inspired by the Global Logistics Emissions Council, embodying our vision of global standard compliance and building an eco-friendly logistics ecosystem.

Core Value Proposition "One Device for Legal Compliance and ESG Management"

Legal Compliance: Korea Transportation Safety Authority DTG certification and automatic E-TAS submission ✓ ESG Management: Real-time carbon emissions calculation based on ISO 14083 ✓ Operational Efficiency: Dangerous driving monitoring and fuel efficiency improvement insights ✓ Integrated Management: One-stop platform connecting vehicles, drivers, and managers


Why GLEC AI DTG? - Solving Market Pain Points

1. Automating Complex Carbon Emissions Calculations

Previously, vehicle operation data had to be manually collected and carbon emissions calculated through separate processes. GLEC AI DTG automates this entire process.

ISO 14083 Methodology-based Precision Calculation:

  • WTT (Well-to-Tank): Indirect emissions from fuel production process
  • TTW (Tank-to-Wheel): Direct emissions during vehicle operation
  • WTW (Well-to-Wheel): Total emissions throughout the entire process
  • Real-time emissions efficiency indicators per kilometer

2. Integrating Dual Systems

Before (Traditional Method):

  • DTG device → Driving record collection
  • Separate system → Carbon emissions calculation
  • Manual work → E-TAS submission
  • Individual management → Data analysis

After (GLEC AI DTG):

  • All functions performed with one integrated device
  • Real-time data collection → Automatic calculation → Automatic submission → Integrated analysis

3. Immediate Improvement Through Real-time Monitoring

With real-time data collected every 30 seconds, driving patterns are analyzed and specific improvement measures to reduce carbon emissions are suggested.
