Delivering Decarbonisation update: ground-breaking net zero conference establishes key industry takeaways

“Speakers at the conference discussed the most important questions the logistics sector is grappling with,” said Michelle Gardner, Deputy Director of Policy at Logistics UK.   

“Key topics included how to approach the decarbonisation of HGV operations, how the government is supporting businesses, views from the OEMs, creating an EV adoption strategy, the infrastructure required for HGV decarbonisation, as well as sharing case study stories of success.”  

“The conference provided attendees with the opportunity to network with some of the most influential and knowledgeable names in the sector, engage in discussions at the forefront of the industry, gain valuable insights from peers facing similar challenges and forge partnerships that will shape the future of sustainable logistics. 

“A key takeaway from the conference is the need for industry-wide collaboration,” continues Gardner.  

“There is a wealth of knowledge available across the sector and sharing both successes and failings on the journey to decarbonisation is crucial to speed-track learnings and help businesses to navigate the net zero transition. 

“While achieving a net zero industry by 2050 may seem daunting, it is encouraging to remember the huge amount of progress that has already been made. While making significant changes – such as adopting the latest zero emission technologies – are important, smaller, more achievable steps matter too and are vital to effective decarbonisation.”
