Transport is missing the emissions reduction bus. Indeed, greenhouse gas emissions from transport are growing, having increased nearly 56 per cent since 1990 at an average annual rate of 1.7 per cent. This represents the highest emissions growth of any sector of the economy.
Around 74.5 per cent of all transport emissions are generated from road vehicles including cars, vans, buses and trucks. With the planet needing to rapidly decarbonise to reach net-zero targets, electric vehicles (EVs) are seen as a key part of the transport solution.
