EMSOL, a UK-based leader in environmental technology, is transforming how the transport sector addresses air quality challenges through its innovative combination of British-engineered solutions.

The company’s recent acquisition of South Coast Science’s MCERTS-certified air quality monitoring technology creates a powerful new force in transport emissions monitoring, bringing together two leading British innovators in environmental technology.

“This strategic integration of British-developed technologies enables transport operators to move beyond simple monitoring to precise, real-time pollution management,” says Freddie Talberg, CEO and Founder of EMSOL. “We’re not just measuring emissions – we’re providing transport professionals with actionable intelligence to reduce their environmental impact.”

Advancing Transport Technology

EMSOL’s platform represents an improved approach to transport emissions management, combining:

• Real-time monitoring of vehicle emissions and air quality impacts
• Computer vision technology for precise source attribution
• Smart analytics for predictive pollution management
• Automated compliance reporting and stakeholder communication

The integration of South Coast Science’s high-precision air quality monitors enhances these capabilities, offering transport operators unprecedented visibility into their environmental impact. Supporting Transport Sustainability Goals

EMSOL’s platform represents a breakthrough in emissions management. Rather than simply measuring general air quality levels, the technology can pinpoint which vehicle or activity caused a pollution spike. This capability means transport operators can finally move beyond guesswork to take targeted action against specific emission sources.

The real-world impact of this approach is already proven. Construction firm Bennett achieved a
71% reduction in pollution incidents after implementing EMSOL’s technology to monitor and
optimise site deliveries. Similarly, Quinn Construction maintained zero noise complaints while
building next to a sensitive sleep research facility, using EMSOL’s real-time alerts to manage delivery timing and vehicle movements.

These results demonstrate how precise pollution attribution, combined with actionable insights, enables transport operators to dramatically improve their environmental performance while maintaining operational efficiency. For ITS UK members seeking to meet increasingly stringent environmental standards, this capability to identify and address specific emission sources offers a powerful new tool in the drive toward sustainable transport.

This development continues Britain’s long tradition of environmental innovation, from the groundbreaking Clean Air Act of 1956 to today’s cutting-edge monitoring technologies. EMSOL’s enhanced platform demonstrates how British technology continues to lead the way in addressing global environmental challenges.

“By combining advanced sensor technology with intelligent analytics, we’re helping transport operators transform their approach to emissions management,” adds Talberg. “This is about making British innovation work for cleaner, more sustainable transport systems.”
