ANHEUSER-BUSCH INBEV AFRICA for its procurement operations in Africa . Its plants , where necessary , have been relaid to accommodate its forklift trucks for maximum efficiency , and a new fleet of LNG-fueled forklifts has been deployed across its continental operations . The trial has been successful , with its LNG forklift performing at 100 % the same as a diesel equivalent .
Having signed a contract with Tetra4 , 50 % of its fleet has been converted to LNG , resulting in a 15 % CO2 emissions reduction . Forklifts , being nimble and easy to move in and out of facilities , represent a far more efficient method of transporting loads around sites than trucks , and LNG itself is easier to store and more difficult to spill than diesel . Another key advantage over electric units is that LNG forklifts do not require sizable batteries and space to store
