LowCVP publishes 'information hub' for low carbon vehicle and fuel roadmaps

The LowCVP (Low Carbon Vehicle Partnership) has produced an 'information hub' on its website offering signposts to the growing range of fuel, vehicle and infrastructure 'roadmaps' which have been produced by the LowCVP and other leading actors in the road transport sector.

The LowCVP (Low Carbon Vehicle Partnership) has produced an 'information hub' on its website offering signposts to the growing range of fuel, vehicle and infrastructure 'roadmaps' which have been produced by the LowCVP and other leading actors in the road transport sector. The roadmaps are a vital tool for directing investment, R&D and policy and are also an important source of information for technology developers and investors in the automotive sector.
 
The UK automotive sector has been revitalised during the last decade through the alignment of both private and public investment with the objective of cutting carbon. This was only possible by collectively recognising the importance of cutting emissions and the role that road transport could play in that objective, and clearly communicating how this will be achieved through a collection of roadmaps.
 
The new information pages, hosted on the LowCVP's website provide signposts to the most important roadmaps that have helped to inform the collective view. The key roadmaps covered (and which are available for download) are: Vehicle technology; Transport energy; Transport energy infrastructure.

The pages also contain a %$Linker: 2 External <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?><dictionary /> 0 0 0 oLinkExternal downloadable general 'Guide to Transport Energy Roadmaps download pdf false http://www.lowcvp.org.uk/assets/reports/TransportRoadmaps.pdf false false%>'.

    Drivers who ply their trade on apps such as Uber could be under greater scrutiny as part of proposals being put forward by the UK government. The potential risk to passengers from the explosion of ride-hailing apps, as private-hire drivers are perceived to receive less thorough vetting – for example, to flag up past convictions – has long been argued. Incidents such as the murders of passengers by a Didi driver in China heightened such concerns - although critics point out that a US Uber driver who ad
