Quantifying greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of logistics hubs such as warehouses, transshipment sites or terminals enables understanding the use of resources and improving the efficiency of operations. Thus, it supports decision-makers on their roadmap to climate neutrality and within the transformation towards sustainable logistics hubs. This research provides an overview of relevant indicators that can be used for measuring the sustainability performance of hubs, along the full life cycle from construction, operation, through to renovation and end-of-life management. Current approaches for the quantification of embodied and operational carbon are summarized. Results of the international market study on energy efficiency and GHG emissions at hubs are outlined and an initial set of GHG emission indicator values for European hubs provided.
