Connecting the world in
responsible and resourceful ways
The 3 Rs of Energy Savings
Reduce
 Reduce fuel consumption with active asset management – right
vehicle/right route
 Reductions in fuel consumption = reduction in emissions
Replace
 Replace older vehicles with more fuel efficient vehicles
Revolutionize
 Drive the creation of new technologies to benefit the customer, the
company and the environment

Asset Optimization
Goal: Maximize asset life & reduce lifecycle cost
 Primary tools
 Cost per mile analysis
 Mileage management
 Vehicle placement
 Vehicle re-positioning
 Fuel management
March 2014 4
Mileage Management
Manage miles and route usage to maximize useful life
March 2014 5
Gallons Saved
 98M gallons saved since end of FY05
 “Slowing down” the fleet of W700s
 Replacing W700s with Sprinters & Reaches
 Placing FY12 - FY14 Sprinters on higher utilization routes
 Potential to save additional 7.7M gallons annually
 Replacing remaining W700s with Isuzu Reach W630
 Reducing category of larger vehicles (W700/Reach/W900) by an
additional 3,000 units

2020 Goal
In 2008, FedEx Corporation set the U.S. transportation
industry's first fuel efficiency goal with a commitment to
improve the overall fuel efficiency of the FedEx Express global
vehicle fleet 20% by 2020, as compared with its 2005
performance.
 Less than five years later, FedEx Express surpassed this goal with a
more than 22 % cumulative improvement in fuel economy for its vehicles
In early 2013, FedEx announced a new target of 30 %
improvement in fuel efficiency for its global vehicle fleet by
2020

Fuel Saving Technologies – Driving
Change
As early as 2005, Global Vehicles was telling the asset supplier market
that we require more fuel efficient vehicles and GSE
Global Vehicles leadership has moved (driven) our supplier base to
make available fuel efficient assets.
In the area of walk-ins, GV procured Sprinters and the commercial
delivery vehicle model called the “Reach”
Tractor and trailer specifications have continued to change to improve
fuel efficiency
GSE improvements include the implementation of Convertor Power
Units (CPU), some of which include cockpit air conditioning

Testing Boundaries and New Ideas
Our work with The Environmental Defense Fund paved the way for
commercial hybrid vehicles
We’ll continue to test new
ideas to see if they can meet
the needs of our network and
industry:
• Electric trikes in Paris
• LNG and biomass at
FedEx Freight
• Hydraulic hybrids at
FedEx Ground
• Green roofs in Chicago
• Fuel cells in Oakland

Hybrid Fleet
March 2014 13
Hybrid vehicle technology has shown promise as a means for
improving fuel economy but the technology hasn’t always been
economically sound
Natural Gas Fleet
Natural gas is becoming a vehicle fuel of choice for many
fleets in the US
Promotes domestic fuel consumption as well as domestic
energy and economic security
 Reduces greenhouse gas by as much as 11% and is much
cleaner than diesel exhaust, thus reducing the amount of
exhaust components to keep the air cleaner
Tractors – 2 Kenworths and 2 Freightliners
 Panel Vans – 10 CNG powered vans

Alternate Drivetrain FY14 Deployment
 To expand our electric fleet in the US and globally, we will be adding the
following vehicles
 6 Renault Kangoo Euro-style panel vans – Brazil. These will be the first electric
vehicles by a global delivery company in Brazil and will be ready for the World Cup and
the 2016 Olympics
 31 Smith Newton – Domestic
 20 Mercedes Benz Euro-style panel vans – France
 By the end of FY14, we will have over 220 total EVs globally

Renault Kangoo
Alternate Drivetrain FY14 & FY15 Testing
and Planning
Nissan EV test
 First major manufacturer with plans to launch an electric panel van globally.
Previous tests in Singapore and the United Kingdom. Testing planned for Brazil in
January, 2014 with U.S. testing to follow
Future FY15 plans include testing more technologies that have the
potential to improve fuel economy and durability while improving
emissions.
 Natural gas as a vehicle fuel is becoming more important. Our mission is to
determine the feasibility of an all-CNG station, including onsite fueling.
 We will be looking at several up and coming companies that have produced cost-
effective parallel hybrid drive systems. We’ve placed these on older vehicles with low
fuel economy in the past but we’d like to evaluate what improvements may be realized
by placing hybrid systems on our newer, more efficient vehicles

Newest Hydrogen Project
20 Hydrogen fuel cell, extended-range electric vehicles
 Battery electric vehicle with an on-board hydrogen fuel cell battery charger
 Plug in at night and the fuel cell keeps the battery charged while operating
 Quiet, clean, only output is water - the vehicle is completely emission free
March 2014 18
Hydrogen Fuel Cells
Hydrogen fuel cells offer an alternative to batteries, their output
is electricity and water
Provides option where electricity is being mandated
On-highway use and GSE use
Provides greater range than batteries alone
Infrastructure is minimal compared to electric charging for each
vehicle
March 2014 19
Hydrogen Fuel Cells
Cargo Tractors
 15 Hydrogen fuel cell cargo tractors being deployed at the Memphis Hub
(pending Project Review Team approval for Properties site preparation)
 Test is for 2 years once deployed
 Future mandates at airports across the country for electric GSE can be fulfilled
with hydrogen fuel cells instead of batteries
