In the longer term, there is an opportunity to take forward projects to support innovative technologies such as ‘dynamic charging’ as a potential solution to decarbonising freight. • HGV platoons. HGV platooning, using advanced vehicle technologies, enables lorries to move in a group and could deliver significant fuel and emissions
In the longer term, there is an opportunity to take forward projects to support innovative technologies such as ‘dynamic charging’ as a potential solution to decarbonising freight. • HGV platoons. HGV platooning, using advanced vehicle technologies, enables lorries to move in a group and could deliver significant fuel and emissions savings. We will be delivering trials of HGV platoons, with joint funding from Highways England, to assess the feasibility and potential costs and benefits of this technology on UK roads.
Delivering trials of Heavy Goods Vehicle (HGV) platoons, which could deliver significant fuel and emissions savings.
