6 Mike Hawes

Chief Executive Officer, Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT)

Mike has been one of the leading influential voices of the UK motor industry since 2013, and there was positive news to be reported in 2022. UK registrations of battery electric vehicles were up over 40 per cent on 2021 figures, with 267,203 cars registered. Hybrids reported a 27.6 per cent rise, while PHEVs were down by around 11 per cent. The electric van segment also had reason to celebrate, with registrations up 31.2 per cent. Representing the UK’s auto industry, Mike continuously fights to tackle issues faced by vehicle manufacturers, such as the global shortage of semiconductors; and the impact of supply chain pauses in China due to Covid lockdowns. He is also calling for a strategy to drive the rapid upscaling of UK battery production and the shift to electric vehicles.

Mike Thornton has been at the Energy Saving Trust (EST) for over 20 years, heading up the organisation’s vital work to address the climate emergency for almost three years. The EST aims to deliver a zero carbon society through carbon emissions reduction in all areas, and Mike has over three decades’ experience in the environmental, energy efficiency, transport and recycling sectors. Chair of the Scottish Power Foundation and the Scottish government’s Heat Pump Sector Deal expert advisory group, Mike is a member of the Climate Emergency Response Group (CERG) which informs the Scottish government. EST initiatives in 2022 included free electric vehicle courses in England for SMEs and the self-employed, where attendees learned about EVs to see if they could be the next choice for their business. The EST is now also leading the Clean Van Commitment, which is a public pledge for fleet operators to speed up the switch to zero tailpipe emission vans and set an example for sustainable leadership.

Throughout 2022, Gerry continued to lead the BVRLA, which represents over 1,000 companies engaged in vehicle rental, leasing and fleet management. Together, BVRLA members are responsible for a combined fleet of four million cars, vans and trucks. The association works with policymakers, public sector agencies, regulators, and numerous other stakeholders to ensure road transport delivers environmental, social and economic benefits.

It also hosted its Fleets in Charge conference, campaigned to keep BIK rates for EVs as low as possible with its #SeeTheBenefit activity, and announced that battery electric now leads petrol to become the most popular fuel type on the BVRLA’s leasing fleet.
