The Editorial Director of this website, Alec Peachey, says the overwhelming success of the inaugural Transport + Energy Forum event, “Taking Action to Decarbonise Now” shows the industry’s enthusiasm for decarbonisation.

Closing the event at the Birmingham Conference and Events Centre, the site’s founder said, “what we have heard today is a real appetite to decarbonise. Katie Black from OZEV set the tone by discussing the need to roll out EV chargers.”

He talked about the clear need to share best practice in local authorities to keep pace, but pointed out help and funding is available and their for the taking.

“The role of the electricity industry is vital, and we heard about the steps being taken to deliver the energy we need,” he added.

In conclusion Alec said, “One thing that has run throughout is that of collaboration. It’s a word that is often bandied about, but today we’ve heard how vital it is. Today we heard how removal of siloes can be done. No-one can do this alone, so let’s keep uniting the sectors.”
