EV revolution, not evolution
Accelerate your corporate decarbonisation through fleet electrification.
A revolution is happening in motoring – and it’s happening now. The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) is affecting thousands of people and organisations around the country. It’s only going to accelerate in the years ahead.
One of the key factors driving this shift is a deadline imposed by the government to end sales of new petrol and diesel cars and vans by 2035 (previously 2030). From that point on, new cars and vans sold in the UK will be obliged to have zero tailpipe emissions. This means that electric won’t just be an alternative; it will be the key element in our transport mix.
This is indeed a revolutionary change, and it has to be. After all, the world faces a climate emergency. We need to act now in order to prevent irreversible damage to our shared environment. Moving away from fossil fuels is a crucial part of that effort.
The 2035 deadline and the climate emergency that underpins it are the most important reasons why fleets must transition to EVs, but there are others. EVs can save you money due to lower fuel costs and servicing bills. They benefit from a range of tax incentives and grants. They can help with your organisation’s ESG goals – accelerating, or even kick-starting, your company’s overall decarbonisation programme.
This revolution is happening now. To join in with your transition to EVs, please get in touch and our team of fleet experts will be happy to discuss your requirements.
Or you can simply click around. This microsite has been created to provide you with a set of resources to support your organisation’s transition to a zero-emission fleet over the coming decade. Wherever you currently are on the journey, we hope you find it helpful.
The site has been built around four fundamental questions we feel operators are asking:
1. I’m researching the market, so what’s driving electrification? We take a look at the policies and programmes, both global and local, that are driving change.
2. I know I have to start electrification soon. We look at the key considerations when electrifying your fleet.
3. I’m ready to start electrifying my fleet now. We take you through our electrification solutions for fleets of all sizes.
4. I have questions. Take a look at some of the main electrification questions asked by fleet operators.
The EV revolution site provides a detailed look at the key drivers, challenges and opportunities in transitioning to EVs. However, this site is not exhaustive; the topic of decarbonisation and fleet electrification is a large and, at times, complex one. If you have questions or need specific information, please get in touch and we will answer your questions. We have also included a resource library with links to reports, papers and other online resources for you to access.
