The UK is actively engaged in decarbonising public sector transport as part of its broader efforts to achieve net zero targets. Local authorities, along with the central government, are implementing policies to reduce carbon emissions in various sectors, with a significant focus on transportation, the largest emitter of greenhouse gases. While diesel-powered vehicles currently dominate fleets, there has been notable progress in adopting electric and hydrogen-powered buses. For instance, 45.1% of new bus registrations in 2023 were battery-electric or hydrogen-powered. The UK Government's investment of £500 million to deliver 1,200 zero-emission buses further underscores the commitment to greener transport solutions. YPO has been working with councils to supply electric vehicles, showcasing the willingness of local authorities to embrace sustainable alternatives when supported by accessible solutions. Despite these advancements, challenges like limited budgets and infrastructure remain barriers to widespread decarbonisation. Collaborative efforts between councils, industry partners, and organizations like YPO are crucial for overcoming these obstacles. By focusing on flexible procurement strategies and engaging in partnerships that offer expert support, councils can navigate the transition to greener transport efficiently and cost-effectively. The journey towards achieving meaningful transport decarbonisation requires a coordinated approach that balances challenges with opportunities, ultimately driving the UK closer to its emission reduction goals.
