The internal combustion engine is reaching the end of the road leaving many commercial fleet owners in need of clear directions for the future.  

Regulation poses a huge challenge to commercial and public vehicle operators which have less than a decade to grasp the nettle of decarbonising their fleets.  

Strategic planning for these organisations is imperative, or costs will spiral as congestion charges rise, and balance sheets are burdened with legacy vehicles that can no longer legally take to the road. 

Join the discussion to hear insights from the world’s largest commercial EV trial, see how tech is playing a central role in easing the transition to sustainable transportation.

Chair:
Warwick Goodall, PA Consulting

Speakers: 
Mike Nugent, Head of EV at Hitachi Europe 
Karen Paciello, Fleet Programme Manager, Royal Mail 
James Bracegirdle | Optimise Prime Programme Manager from Hitachi
