A new report by Zemo Partnership for the Welsh Government sets out the policy options to decarbonise Wales’ commercial vehicle sector.

Claire Haigh is to step down as Managing Director of Zemo Partnership and will be replaced by Zemo’s Director of Finance, Operations and Business Development, Jonathan Murray.

In collaboration with the FIA, the world governing body for motor sport, Zemo Partnership has developed a unique scheme to certify the use of sustainable racing fuel.

Zemo Partnership today publishes a Delivery Roadmap for Net Zero Transport which sets out the interventions required across key policy areas to bring forward investment in zero emission technologies and low carbon fuels and promote low carbon travel choices.

An interim report from Zemo Partnership confirms that emissions arising from the use of transport refrigeration units incorporated into trucks and vans contribute to local air pollution as well as to road transport’s total ‘greenhouse gas footprint’.

Zemo Partnership today publishes guidance for the new Government on delivering a greener future.

Zemo Partnership today announces the full membership of the new independent Council for Net Zero Transport chaired by Lord Deben, former Chair of the Climate Change Committee. 

With targets and regulations for tailpipe GHG and polluting emissions in place, greater attention now needs to be paid to other sources of emissions, such as those from ancillary engines which are used for purposes other than vehicle propulsion.

A new Council for Net Zero Transport, convened by Zemo Partnership, comprising senior stakeholders will help steer UK transport’s decarbonisation transition as it moves into the crucial delivery phase.

Study models vehicle life cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across a range of vehicles, powertrains and fuel/energy pathways to inform future policy direction 

Following a strategic review to coincide with Zemo’s 20th anniversary, the Partnership is announcing the creation of a new Zero Emission Mobility Taskforce which aims to become a leading authority on the policies and pathways needed to achieve a successful transition to net zero road transport in the UK.

While the drive to electrify road transport may take most of the headlines, there are other clear options for operators of large, harder (and more expensive)-to-electrify heavy duty vehicles to cut their greenhouse gas emissions.

Proposals for a UK renewable diesel incentive - Zemo Partnership study

Read Zemo Partnership CEO Andy Eastlake's response to the Government announcement of over £200m funding to bring the "world’s largest fleet of zero emission HGVs" to UK roads.

Taskforce identifies five key conditions to hit the ‘sweet spot’ that meets consumer needs, drives uptake of electric vehicles and provides the right chargepoints in the right places

Zemo Partnership’s Renewable Fuels Assurance Scheme (RFAS) for higher blend renewable fuels launched last year is going from strength-to-strength with 14 fuel suppliers now fully approved under the scheme.

The PLV (powered two, three and light four-wheeled vehicles) launches its ‘Action Plan’ for Government and industry to help realise its full potential in decarbonising the UK’s transport sector.

With road transport’s electric revolution gathering pace, the groundbreaking, Government-backed Electric Vehicle (EV) Energy Taskforce has published four new reports covering key elements of the electric transition in road transport, defining the conditions required to enable the UK to capture the benefits from the integration of our transport and energy systems.

A new study from transport decarbonisation specialists, Zemo Partnership, uses life-cycle analysis (LCA) to compare the greenhouse gas emissions performance of powered light vehicles (PLV), including powered two wheelers (PTW), with larger vehicles which have traditionally been used for a range of operational and leisure purposes, focusing mainly on urban areas.
