Switching to zero carbon transport
What are the issues?
The UK aims to ban new petrol and diesel cars by 2035 and to achieve zero emissions from transportation by 2050. These targets are driving the transition to electric powered vehicles and electrification of the maritime and heavy transport sector. Businesses with several vehicles have an opportunity to convert entire fleets to electric power.
