Could John Lewis’ new electric vans provide the blueprint for other van fleets to follow?
Last week, we highlighted the new compact depot charging solution from Hitachi ABB Power Grids; yet another example of the way in which fleets are changing, as a result of the need to move away from traditional fossil fuels.
