GLEC AI Tachograph Sets New Benchmark for Logistics Industry with Real-Time Carbon Measurement Every Second

Korean logistics technology company GLEC is redefining industry standards with its AI Tachograph (ATG), a breakthrough device capable of calculating carbon emissions in real time—once every second.   Today, most logistics companies still calculate carbon emissions at the end of a month or quarter, typically relying on estimates. Yet, with the European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) coming into effect and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) enforcing climate disclosure rules, precise data is no longer optional. Until now, however, real-time measurement has been considered technically unfeasible.   GLEC has overcome this barrier. From the moment the AI Tachograph is installed in a vehicle, it begins calculating and recording carbon emissions every second. Acceleration, deceleration, idling, hill climbs—every driving condition is immediately reflected in the data.   At the heart of GLEC ATG is its proprietary API calculation engine. The company has successfully optimized the internationally recognized ISO 14083 methodology—long considered too complex for real-time use—into an algorithm capable of delivering results within a single second.   Pilot tests have already demonstrated the value of this innovation. In one case, significantly higher-than-expected emissions were identified on a specific route, allowing immediate route adjustments and driving behavior improvements to reduce both fuel costs and emissions.   Ease of use is another advantage. Like a conventional digital tachograph, the ATG requires only installation in the vehicle. No complicated setup or driver training is needed. The system automatically collects and analyzes data, and, when necessary, provides voice alerts to warn drivers of reduced fuel efficiency.   As the importance of accurate carbon data grows, global corporations are beginning to demand precise emissions figures from their supply chain partners. With GLEC ATG, logistics providers can meet these demands instantly.   To ensure reliability, GLEC is conducting extensive testing across multiple vehicle types, from small trucks to heavy-duty fleets, verifying both compatibility and accuracy.   GLEC plans to officially unveil the ATG Series 5 at CES 2026 in Las Vegas this coming January. Visitors will be able to witness firsthand how the device updates emissions data in real time, second by second, on actual vehicles.   Industry experts predict that GLEC ATG will become more than just a measurement tool—it has the potential to drive the digital transformation of the logistics sector. For small and mid-sized logistics companies, in particular, it could enable carbon management capabilities previously accessible only to large enterprises.   With the global carbon management technology market expected to grow rapidly through 2030, all eyes are now on how GLEC’s AI Tachograph will shape the future of logistics decarbonization.    정현식 기자measurement tachograph carbon emissions time measurement korean logistics
