The Department for Transport (DfT) has published its Freight Carbon Review 2017 – a research report on the evidence and opportunities for, and the barriers to, reducing emissions from road freight.

The report’s conclusions include acknowledgments that DfT will work with the Energy Saving Trust to pilot an HGV fleet review scheme, continue to gather evidence on the environmental and economic performance of alternatively fuelled vehicles, and engage industry with the development of its £20m Advanced Renewable Fuel Demonstration Competition.
