Is It Time to See Electric Trucks as Long-Term Fleet Assets?
With electric HGV’s being a viable option for short and medium duty cycles, do we need to reconsider the truck funding model and challenge our perception of trucks and their life span?

Why we need a second-life for EV batteries: an interview with Rob Long, Senior Business Development Associate
Rob runs us through the benefits; both environmental and financial, of using batteries in a second life and creating a circular economy.
What is a circular economy for batteries?
To electrify our energy systems, it will be necessary to develop a sustainable life cycle for batteries so that critical minerals can be used as efficiently as possible.
Why is transport a key part of the energy transition?
Decarbonising transport shouldn’t mean just ramping up electric car production and installing charge points. Collectively, we must recognise that the net zero project is an opportunity to redesign the transport system…
Why is battery storage key to reaching net zero?
While renewable energy is zero-carbon, it is also intermittent: it is only generated when the wind blows and the sun shines. This is where batteries come in.
Renewable energy is being expensively wasted. Here’s how battery storage can fix that.
In 2020 and 2021 curtailment was especially high, costing £806 million and wasting enough renewable electricity to power 800 000 homes.
Leading the charge: electric vehicle batteries and battery performance for fleet operators
This guide is written to help fleet operators understand two of the key considerations when switching to battery electric vehicles: the batteries themselves, and how to manage their performance.
Models for fleet electrification
Fleet decarbonisation faces many barriers, including high capital costs. Rapidly, international stakeholders are developing policies and business models to overcome this barrier – we take a look.
Rebecca, Operations Associate on supporting the electrification of bus depots
From late night issue diagnosis to smart charging strategies and data analysis, the Operations team provide extended support to fleet operators so they can run zero emissions routes & maximise use of our services.
Is Electric Transport as a Service (ETaaS) the future for fleet electrification?
The simplest approach to overcoming the barriers to fleet electrification could be for operators to transition away from ownership entirely and towards an Electric Transport as a Service model.
