No matter what your organisation does, there’s a good chance alternative fuels could be right for you – especially with the right fuel type and vehicles.
Alternative fuel options can work for you
The LoCITY Options Report identified four technology and fuel options that meet Euro VI/6 emission standards, have evidenced operational capability and may be capable of operating at similar costs to a diesel commercial vehicle:
- Battery electric, plug-in hybrid and extended- range electric
- Hydrogen fuel cell
- Dedicated gas (including CNG, LNG, biofuel and LPG)
- Renewable fuels like hydrotreated vegetable oil and gas-to-liquid

Electric vehicles could have sufficient range for my operation
With electric vehicle range improving continuously, it’s more likely than ever that you’ll be able to find a model to fit your mileage needs. According to the Low Carbon Vehicle Partnership, small electric vans can offer up to an 80-mile range while large vans can offer 100.
Our smart chargers manage the overall charge input into the vehicles such that it does not exceed a set maximum level and ensures that all the vans are fully charged overnight and ready to use the next day.
