Ahead of Bristol’s Clean Air Zone launching later this year, the council is offering businesses the chance to trial electric vans and cars for up to two months, to get a better understanding of the benefits and how electric vehicles could work for them.
The scheme, fully funded by National Highways, will run for two years and aims to reduce vehicle emissions and improve air quality in Bristol.
Eligible businesses, charities and voluntary organisations based in and around Bristol can borrow one of a range of vehicles, with full insurance included. As well as a choice of small, medium and large vans the fleet includes a small number of electric taxis and cars suitable for smaller businesses.
Each electric vehicle is fitted with a device that provides detailed journey and charging data, helping organisations understand how they’ve used the vehicle. Along with impartial expert support from the council, it will help them to make an informed decision about whether to purchase one (or more) vehicles for their own fleet.
