THE FUTURE IS HEREWe can help you prepare for it.

During November 2020, the UK Government published its 10 point plan for a green industrial revolution. The plan incorporates electric vehicles (EVs) and backing the UKs world-leading car manufacturing bases in the North East, West Midlands and North Wales to accelerate the transition to electric vehicles, and transforming national infrastructure to better support electric vehicles.
In respect of Hydrogen, to work with industry to help generate 5GW of low carbon hydrogen production capacity by 2030 for industry, transport, power and homes, and with the aim to develop the first UK town heated entirely by hydrogen by the end of the decade.
With new car and van sales powered solely by petrol and diesel banned in the UK from 2030, there is a clear and strategic need to accelerate the country’s transition to electric vehicles and to transform national infrastructure to better support their adoption and use. Fuel cell electric vehicles and utilisation of hydrogen both as a transport and domestic fuel are also key component drivers in tackling climate change.
Most people know someone with an electric car, or at the very least have seen them more often on the road. While adoption is still in its early stages, long-term projections show a rapid increase globally. Although there are some variations in statistics, generally speaking, the number of electric vehicles globally, is predicted to grow to around 120 million in 2030, up from an estimated 8 million in 2020.
The Electric Vehicle revolution in particular is being driven by institutions of all varieties and on a global scale. The continuing growth of EVs in the global marketplace can essentially be put down to a number of factors, namely, political intervention/policy implementation, environmental pressures/awareness and of course, consumer preference.
As consumer awareness and preference continues to grow and global governments implement new standards, technology will continue to evolve with developments and improvements in lithium-ion batteries, increases in energy density and price differentials linked to economies of scale.
