According to a report from Greenpeace, the plan to ban sales of petrol and diesel cars in the UK by 2030 could create more than 30,000 jobs thanks to growth in sectors such as such as energy and battery manufacturing, along with the mass roll-out of charging infrastructure.
Amazing to be working with Natural Generation Ltd on this project. It's going to be a very busy but exciting winter!

For too long there've been grants available for electric cars, vans, lorries, taxis, and even motorbikes, but not e-bikes. This is a great step, as a mass uptake in e-bikes could provide a real alternative to households that previously relied on two or more cars.
The government plans to offer a system of direct subsidies to businesses in order to cut the price of electric bikes by up to 35%.
E-bikes currently cost between £600 and £3,000.
