Tom Bloor, managing director of evec – one of the country’s leading electric-vehicle charger companies – responds to new UK emissions targets.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced at the United Nations COP29 climate summit, this week, that Britain will cut greenhouse gas emissions by 81 per cent by 2035,
Tom Bloor, managing director of evec, responded: “The announcement that the UK aims to slash emissions by 81 per centfrom 1990 levels by 2035 sets a bold example for taking on climate change head-on
This goal doesn’t just set a new standard; it makes clear that reducing emissions isn’t just the right thing to do—it’s the essential thing to do. And transport is a huge piece of that puzzle
We’re already supporting this transition by making EV charging accessible, affordable, and effortless for everyone. Because if we’re going to hit these ambitious targets, we need to make choosing electric easy
It’s time to accelerate our path to net zero. Let’s make sure the infrastructure, incentives, and awareness are there to make it a reality.”
