Answer
The Department is working with industry stakeholders to develop a zero emission HGV and coach infrastructure strategy for publication in 2024.
The strategy will set strategic direction and outline the respective roles and responsibilities of both government and industry to ensure the delivery of the refuelling and recharging infrastructure required to meet the 2035 and 2040 end of sale dates for new non-zero emission HGVs. This follows on from the Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Strategy, which focused on cars and vans.
