“…More recently, Centobelli et al (2017) [23] published a literature review entirely based on topic areas that are similar to those proposed by Evangelista et al (2013) [24], Evangelista (2014) [25] and Evangelista (2016) [26]. Nevertheless, Centobelli et al (2017) [23] analyzed a number of papers (46) that is much lower than the number of papers considered in our literature review (88). In addition, the time span used by the two literature reviews is different, as Centobelli et al (2017) [23] considered the time interval 2000-2014, while our review provided a more updated state of the current literature in the field (from 2000 until 2016).…”

“…However, the authors found that even a large-scale adoption of these strategies by truck drivers would lead to a partial reduction of GHG emissions only. In a similar fashion, Liimatainen et al (2014c) [88] argued that the use of alternative transport modes and biofuels could not ensure the expected benefits, even in the most environmentally-sensitive countries. A greater reduction of CO 2 emissions in road freight transport may be achieved through the adoption of state-of-the-art technology, a closer cooperation with shippers and new environmental public policies and regulations (Liimatainen et al, 2015) [90].…”

Despite the increasing interest toward environmental issues in the freight transport and logistics service sector, a comprehensive and updated assessment of the existing literature is still missing. This paper aims to fill this gap by presenting the results of a systematic literature review of publications in the area of environmental sustainability in third-party logistics service providers (3PLs) between the years 2000 and 2016. The review offers insight into the critical dimensions of green matters in transport and logistics service companies using an analytical framework based on the following five topic areas: influencing factors, green actions and the impact on performance, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools supporting the green actions, energy efficiency in road freight transport and shipper's perspective and collaboration. The results indicate that, despite the number of published papers having grown significantly from 2008 onward, some areas remain highly under-researched such as ICT and performance measurement. Several research gaps have been identified in each topic area, and a set of propositions forming an agenda for future research directions has been suggested.

“…They were based on qualitative and quantitative methodologies such as Delphi, TRIZ, and statistics [2][3][4][5][6][7]. Most qualitative methods for technology analysis were depended on the experts' knowledge of target technology [8,9]. These could be subjective because they were brought from diverse experience of domain experts.…”

Organizations increasingly adopt technologies and logistics measures to improve their social sustainability, reduce transportation-related carbon emissions, or even design their supply chains carbon negative. However, the speed at which this adoption is progressing is not fast enough to address the sustainability challenges of the world today. To gain deeper knowledge about the adoption process of sustainability-related measures in road freight transportation, this paper examines barriers currently hindering a broader market penetration and derives expected timeframes when mass adoption of 14 relevant technologies will occur. Furthermore, the technologies' impacts on the economic, environmental, and social dimensions of sustainability are discussed providing recommendations, on which technologies the respective stakeholders might focus on in the future. Since we want to examines a long-term technology perspective of the next 25 years, we rely on systematic foresight methodology. More specifically, we collect empirical data by use of a real-time Delphi survey, which particularly suits complex and uncertain environments. Our global panel includes 116 experts from 25 different countries.The assessments are grouped into short-term, midterm, midterm to long-term, and long-term developments. The categories shed light on potential drivers and barriers to the implementation of the surveyed technologies. The findings emphasize the need to systematically select suitable measures and promote those that are expected to deliver short-term sustainability improvements to address current deficits in a timely manner. The article further outlines the crucial role of politics in developing necessary regulative frameworks to drive sustainability in road freight transportation.
