In 2018, the transport sector became the largest source of emissions in the UK – surpassing the power sector. Much more progress on decarbonisation is needed, using both renewable transport fuels and renewably powered electric vehicles.
REA is the voice for the UK’s renewable transport fuels industry and has represented the industry since 2005. The Renewable Transport Fuels Group (RTFG) covers biodiesel, bioethanol, biomethane and development fuels, including renewable hydrogen.
In parallel to this, the REA’s EV Forum, established circa 2017, is steadily growing and now hosts over 75 members manufacturing, installing, operating, financing, and providing services to the UK EV charging sector.
The EV Forum’s work is complemented by that of the Solar, Energy Storage, and Large Scale Power & Markets Forums.
See the resources and news sections below for our latest work in this area.
