Alternative Energy Projects

This year's measure is the first step in the roll-out of that scheme. The scheme is meeting its target for the first year. We have to continue to review it to make sure the planned carbon savings accrue. We need to ensure new technologies, such as those relating to second generation bio-fuels, are fed into it. It is providing a mixed fuel supply system that helps to provide a more stable, clean and secure transport fuel solution, which is what it was meant to do. That will benefit the haulage industry in the long run.
