Low Carbon Options

•  Fuel cells

•  Hydrogen

•  Bioethanol

•  Biodiesel

•  Natural gas

•  Biomethane


Low Carbon Options

•  Fuel cells

•  Hydrogen

•  Bioethanol

•  Biodiesel

•  Natural gas

•  Biomethane

•  Only 3 suitable for HGVs


Biodiesel

•  CO2 benefit depends on life cycle of the material, some interfere with food chain.

•  100% PPO engine conversion required. Varying analysis of tail pipe emission. OEMs not fully supportive of which could potentially cause warranty issues.


Natural Gas

•  Cleanest of all the fossil fuels is methane

•  CH4 + 2O2 = 2H2O + CO2

•  Readily available

•  Dedicated vehicles or dual fuel conversions

•  Supported by OEMs & no warranty issues


Biomethane

•  Substitute for natural gas

•  Other European countries using widely.

•  Currently best low carbon option for HGVs

•  Limited availability of supply (but due to increase)


Initial barriers •  Challenges outlined:

•  Cost – too expensive? – analysis shows good payback •  Gas vehicles problematic? – experience in UK & Europe •  What if we run out of fuel? – dual fuel switches to

diesel •  What if something better comes along in a few years?

- If it does vehicles are changes every 3 – 5 years & can adopt new technology, if it doesn’t at least we haven’t been doing nothing waiting.

•  Why isn’t everyone else doing it? – all asking the same question

•  Focused on solutions – it is do-able & do-able now


Experience

•  Our story …. So far •  Vehicles available •  Vehicle warranty & maintenance •  Fuel •  Fuelling station •  Investment approved •  Environmental performance


Assistance needed

•  Clarity on parity in duty differential •  Confirmation Government backing natural gas •  Action on fuelling infrastructure •  Incentive e.g. on CO2 saving to help cover
