RHA industry survey launched to inform net zero strategy

A new RHA industry survey has been launched to support and inform the association’s advice to government around decarbonisation of the sector.
Through the net zero survey, the Road Haulage Association aims to gather feedback from businesses about the challenges and opportunities of introducing electric, hydrogen and low carbon vans and trucks into their fleets.
Richard Smith, managing director of the RHA, said: “We’ve been clear that by reducing the costs of decarbonisation and ensuring the required infrastructure is in place, our sector can prepare, and fully play its part. We’re asking operators for their views on decarbonising HGV, coach, and van fleets.
“The survey is a crucial opportunity for businesses to have their say on the way ahead, and the insights from it will help us best define what our sectors need on the road to net zero.”
He continued: “The results will help us to better highlight how ready operators are to bring alternatively fuelled vehicles into their fleets. We want as much feedback from across the road transport sector as possible. This survey will also help to inform our work with government and other stakeholders involved in delivering HGV, coach, and van decarbonisation.
Businesses are invited to respond until 5pm on 15 April.
