10.40 - The electrification of transport and its wider benefits to society in terms of carbon and energy reduction |
- Opportunities and scope for the surface transport sector to switch to EV's and PHEV's to enable a significant reduction in CO2 emissions
- The opportunity for the introduction of Zero Emission Zones in cities
- Developing requirements for local authorities to reduce city emissions (local tailpipe, green house gases, and noise pollution)
- The grid impact will be briefly considered through reviewing Vehicle to Grid (V2G) principles and how these principles can offer load balancing opportunities and an increase in percentage of UK grid mix from renewables through the energy storage opportunity this technology offers.
