An inquiry has been launched by the House of Lords Environment and Climate Change Committee to gain a better understanding of how the UK can achieve net zero through the use of electric vehicles (EVs).
The committee will specifically focus on the barriers to decarbonizing cars and vans in the country, with an emphasis on passenger cars. Committee chair Baroness Kate Parminter highlighted the importance of individuals making changes to their lives, including how they travel and what they buy, in order to reach net zero. She also mentioned that the government has committed to ending the sale of new petrol and diesel cars and vans by 2030.
The inquiry will examine the government's approach to achieving the phase-out dates of 2030 and 2035, as well as issues related to national and regional infrastructure and charging.
Baroness Parminter expressed the committee's desire to hear from the public about their experiences with acquiring and using EVs in the UK, as well as the barriers they face. The committee also seeks input from industry, local authorities, and other stakeholders interested in decarbonizing transport to determine what actions the government should take to encourage greater adoption of EVs before the 2030 and 2035 targets.
