Define the road toreducing commercialvehicle emissions in
London
Lack of clarity on priorities and definitions for “low emission” commercial vehicles and no long term policy framework
Lack of motivation to reduce emissions beyond Euro VI / 6Limited supply of suitable alternatively fuelled vehiclesInsufficient public infrastructureObstacles to owning infrastructure
Difficulty establishing anchor demand to make business caseLimited access to affordable, suitable landPlanning process causes long delays
Low demand and insufficient policy supportRange and payload constraintsHigh component costs
Facilitate trials and workshops for industry and policymakersCreate a website with resources for industry stakeholders
Reflect national priorities and local targets in London transport policy Incentives to go beyond Euro VI / 6 London test cycles and geofencingHighlight suitable sites for infrastructureProcure low / ultra low emission vehicles
Use national definitions of low / ultra low emission to advertise emissions benefits
Share information on whole life costs and performance in specific applications
Help policymakers to define targets, timescales, and measuresTrial innovative vehicles and infrastructure
Communicate fuel pricingAlign infrastructure deployment with vehicle sales timing and locations
Support refuelling and charging network development Guidance for planning authorities Single map of live infrastructure availability
Define priorities and targets for emissions
Define key terms such as “low / ultra low emission”
Implement incentives and guidance for use of low / ultra low emission vehicles
Frameworks for local measures & emissions reportingFuel cost differentialsCapex support
