The Climate Change Action Plan was approved at the 07 June 2021 Executive meeting. Understanding the Council’s vehicle replacement options and trialling vehicles to move towards other fuel sources for the fleet were identified as priorities within the plan.
The feasibility of hydrogen, electricity and hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) as alternative fuels for the refuse collection vehicle (RCV) fleet are presented.
The report proposes a 12-month trial of HVO in the three RCVs to be used for garden waste collections, starting in time for the launch of the new wheeled bin collection service in February 2022.
