The Energy Saving Trust fleet management toolkit provides information and resources to help you lower your costs, while reducing the carbon emissions from your organisation’s vehicles and employee travel. Many improvements are straightforward, benefit both the environment and your business.
Three strategies are central to sustainable, efficient fleet management:
- driving fewer miles
- fuel-efficient driving
- replacing vehicles with lower-emission alternatives by:
- leasing or purchasing petrol or diesel company vehicles based on whole life costs (WLC)
- reducing the use of private cars for work purposes (grey fleet)
- seeking opportunities to integrate electric vehicles in the fleet
