There actually exists one easy way to reduce the energy needed to transport goods, I think an ordinary train will use about roughly 1/5 to 1/10 the amount of energy used by a lorry or truck. Comparing a train with cars will probably make an even bigger difference and trains could travel at much higher speeds.
