Transport remains the highest CO2 emitter in the UK, and fleet drivers cover a much higher mileage than per anum than private motorists. So electrifying fleets, including those involved in parcel deliveries, is the quick win that will make the most significant and fastest contribution to the UK’s CO2 reduction.
We need to see delivery companies switch their entire fleet of vehicles to ones powered by clean energy – to be truly clean, these would need to be charged by renewable power rather than fossil fuel
Doug Parr, Policy Director at Greenpeace.
Moving to an EV solution – has both challenges and opportunities.
Incentives:
- The 2030 ban on new petrol and diesel.
- The number of clean air zones in the UK is set to increase.
- All companies wish to be recognised for having a commitment to sustainability or meeting a supply chain obligation to a zero-carbon target.
Challenges:
- One current challenge is that the demand for electric vehicles exceeds the supply.
- Electric charge facilities also need to be integrated into workplaces and, sometimes, the homes of key employees and drivers.
Integrating and designing EV fleet charging requires experience and expertise
We are experts in integrating EV charge solutions for fleet charging. Using intelligent load balancing to make the best use of your supply and offering several back-office options to allow you to control and monitor the facility.
Based in Cheshire and covering the northwest region
Based in Cheshire and part of the Meel Group, we design and install electric fleet charging solutions across the northwest region. We have recently created solutions for Stepping Hill Hospital and the new Sandon Global HQ in Runcorn.
EV charge point solutions contribute a significant component to businesses’ zero-carbon targets.
