Every two months, each online mini event will drill down to the important topics in a sector that has seen the uptake of electric vehicles reach record numbers, and with strong growth in the sale of EVs expected year-on-year, attention now turns to the feasibility of EV use.
Find the answers right here from industry experts, join the interactive Q&A and get your net zero finance plan on the right track.

Today sees us look at the best ways to fund your green fleets. Does it make more sense to lease or purchase vehicles? Who can train your drivers without them being off-road? And then there is the issue of how to pay for the power to charge EVs and fuel low carbon transport. @GreenFleetNews
