Future of Roads Minister Lilian Greenwood has announced the establishment of 54 new charging and hydrogen refuelling hubs for zero-emission heavy goods vehicles (HGVs). However, Logistics UK questions the government’s neglect of low carbon fuels, which could aid in meeting decarbonisation goals. The organization’s Deputy Director, Michelle Gardner, emphasizes that while the logistics sector is committed to decarbonisation and exploring various fuels and technologies, significant barriers remain.
