Plug-In Truck Grant extension helps make business case for green investment, says Logistics UK

Logistics UK Deputy Director Policy, Michelle Gardner, says it will speed up decarbonisation by helping make the business case for investing in electric vehicles: 

“Cost is a significant barrier for businesses when investing in green technology, so extending the Plug-In Truck Grant will encourage HGV fleet decarbonisation by removing some of the risk. 

“We have been calling for the grant to be extended for some time and our members will be encouraged that the government is taking industry’s views on board. Alongside affordable electric vehicles, the sector needs a comprehensive charging network, and we continue to urge the government to ensure the energy infrastructure is delivered at the pace the sector requires to maintain the nation’s supply chains while meeting net-zero goals.”
