------- T H E R O A D TO 2 0 3 0 B E G I N S H E R E ------Welcome to GREENFLEET Midlands – Stage IV of the NET ZER0 ROADSHOW Some of you joining us today are seasoned NET ZER0 ROADSHOW delegates and will know that these bespoke regional events, repurposed for the pandemic lockdown, are part of our recognised GF365 brand. They are your favourite fleet events brought to you through a safe and engaging online platform. For those of you who are new to the NET ZER0 ROADSHOW, these events are here to stimulate conversation, get your questions answered, showcase thought-leadership and progression and share ideas. So why the Midlands? On 1 June, Birmingham City Council and Transport for West Midlands launched the Clean Air Zone in Birmingham. It will operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year with charges applied daily. Its significance lies in the scale of the operation. With approx. 1.1 million inhabitants within its urban area alone, Birmingham is a major transport hub. Despite this, the Clean Air Zone is a targeted action taken to improve air quality. So, what does it mean for you and your fleets?
vehicle manufacturers Maxus, Volvo and Toyota and charging and infrastructure experts National Grid, ubitricity, Pivot Power and Connected Kerb. Costsaving is also on the agenda with LeasePlan. More than this, today’s event is about YOU taking part.

Peter joined Birmingham City Council in 2019 to begin work on the Council’s strategy, planning, launch and implementation of the city’s Clean Air Zone. A Clean Air Zone is an area where targeted action is taken to improve air quality, in particular by discouraging the most polluting vehicles from entering the zone. No vehicle is banned in the zone, but those which do not have clean enough engines will have to pay a daily charge if they travel within the area. Following the rollout of CAZ and once Birmingham reduces levels of NO2 in the air to a maximum average of 40μg/m3, it pledges to continue to lower the amount of NO2 and particulate matter in the air as far as possible, positioning Birmingham on a successful journey to cleaner air.

National Grid National Grid may be a well-known name, but there are often misconceptions as to what we actually do. We own the Electricity Transmission in England and Wales, as well as the Gas Transmission for the whole of Great Britain. In more relatable terms, this means that we own the Motorways and Dual Carriageways of the energy system, where the local A and B roads are run by Regional Distribution Networks; hence we are critical to keeping the lights on and the gas flowing. National Grid does not buy, sell, or generate electricity, we simply transport it from where it’s made
to where it’s consumed. We obviously share the target of net zero by 2050, are confident about meeting this target. In this vein of sustainability, we are aware that as the Transmission Owner, we have an essential role when it comes to the electric vehicle charging infrastructure in the UK. National Grid can cope with 100% EVs and having the right ‘future proof’ grid capacity at the right location ahead of need is key to success for charge point owners. National Grid is the enabler of the low carbon transport future, and we see collaboration ensuring this ‘managed transition’ to clean transport.
