Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber accelerates its journey to Net Zero

The Chamber has signed up for an innovative electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme which gives all Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber staff the chance to get behind the wheel of their dream EV at a reduced cost.

The scheme offers access to top brands like Porsche, Tesla, BMW, Audi and more, while enabling employees to enjoy substantial savings on tax and National Insurance contributions.

Two staff members have already signed up and taken delivery of new Tesla Model Ys from EV subscription brand EZOO, since the scheme was rolled out.

The EZOO Salary Sacrifice Scheme allows employees to switch to an EV, like the Tesla Model Y, by sacrificing part of their pre-tax salary which could net them savings of between 30-60 per cent over traditional leasing options.

EZOO will also take care of all the hassle of insurance, tax, maintenance and more within the monthly payments.

GenCarbon, we hope to be able to fulfil the demand for highly skilled individuals who can carry out a range of solar installations, as the UK looks forward to a green future. We want to extend our thanks to the Azets team, including Sue Maltby and Jacob Boocker, without whom we wouldn’t have been so confident in starting our latest venture.”

Sue Maltby, Senior Manager at Azets added: “It’s been a pleasure to assist the team in all areas of setting up a new company, from assistance with registration for VAT, PAYE and CIS, as well as providing necessary outsourcing. Starting up a company can be much more complex than some realise, especially when spinning plates with parent companies, and so we’re glad to have offered reassurance during this process. We wish the GenCarbon team the very best of luck and look forward to supporting them as the company continues to flourish and grow.”

This option is open to all businesses to sign up to and is completely cost-neutral, so this is not only a staff perk but also helps organisations push towards a more sustainable future.

Net Zero Expo & Summit

EZOO also showcased its cutting-edge solutions at the Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber's Net Zero Expo & Summit, where the Porsche Taycan EV stole the spotlight.

The summit was designed to provide invaluable insights and guidance for businesses striving to align with the Government’s Net Zero targets. EZOO and a host of other exhibitors from the green sector shared their expertise, offering members practical steps to reduce carbon emissions.
