Background
The Low Emission Freight and Logistics Trial (LEFT) involves a wide selection of alternative technologies being assessed both in-service and through a dedicated, laboratory-based emissions testing programme, under a £20 million government programme to cut emissions from road freight and improve air quality.
The competition was delivered by the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) and Innovate UK. TRL Ltd was the lead delivery contractor, carrying out data collection and analysis of the performance, cost savings and environmental impacts of the trial vehicles to evidence impact. The initial activity in 2018 was to update the government’s evidence base on the emissions performance of gas-powered vehicles, and later other vehicle technologies, to inform the Treasury’s review of fuel duties.
Zemo Partnership has been asked, following its role in the trials of providing technical guidance and support to TRL during the planning and delivery of the emissions testing programme, to help disseminate the results of the trials to stakeholders.
Objectives
- To summarise the key trial findings for industry and government
