Supporting you on the Road to Zero

The Government’s Road to Zero Strategy presents us all with a challenge to drastically reduce our carbon emissions by 2030. The electric vehicle revolution is upon us!

For those in fleet management, that means taking a 3-step approach to sustainability:

  • collecting accurate data around vehicle use
  • managing and reducing demand
  • investing in ultra low-emission vehicles (ULEVs) and infrastructure

We know there’s enthusiasm for this transition, but unblocking the road to electrification can often seem difficult and daunting. The good news is that CCS is here to ease your journey, with a range of end-to-end products and services designed to meet the needs of your organisation, regardless of size or sector.

Find out more about our CCS sustainability offer and how we’re empowering you to buy sustainably.

Electric vehicles: a green shoot of recovery in the fleet industry

We may be in the midst of an unprecedented health crisis, but climate change hasn’t gone away. The public sector still faces an urgent need to reduce pollution and carbon emissions – which means we all need to review our fleet policies and consider what our future fleet will look like in a post-pandemic world.
