The Case for Low Emission Transport (Climate change, air pollution and the role of transport)

Transport emissions, causing environmental issues such as climate change and poor urban air quality, affect us all and will continue to do so in the future unless we act now. This hybrid course provides training on the topic of low emission transport. The course looks at the key technologies, trends, policies and innovations in the industry, giving learners the confidence to evaluate the benefits and impacts of new transport technologies in real-world applications. The course runs over two days, with a combination of live engagement sessions and online learning resources.

Bi-directional charging is a key technology in supporting the transition of our transport and energy systems to net-zero carbon emissions. As electric vehicles grow in numbers, charging them and the impact this has on homes, businesses and electricity networks becomes a critical question, with V2G looking like one of the best answers available to us. This self-paced online module will help you understand this amazing new technology and some of the ways it could impact your own business.

Join this self-paced online learning module to find out all about Electric Vehicle Infrastructure and the role it plays in supporting the decarbonisation of the transport industry. Course Outline: Electric Vehicle Infrastructure: An introduction to the key technical concepts of electric vehicle infrastructure Comparison of technologies: Exploring the different types of infrastructure and how they compare and differ Applications and limitations: Examining the strengths and weaknesses of each form of electric vehicle infrastructure and What's next?: Exploring the likely future opportunities and innovations for electric vehicle infrastructure and the impact these will have on the business case for electric vehicles.

This UK Government-funded course is designed for local authority officers involved in public electric vehicle infrastructure (EVI) deployment. Covering electric vehicle (EV) and charging technology, stakeholders, strategy, procurement, deployment, and operations, it ensures participants are equipped to effectively roll out EVI and share best practices. Participants gain essential skills for EVI deployment, fostering consistency and knowledge sharing across local authorities, ultimately supporting the transition to EV in England.

Join this self-paced online learning module to find out all about Hydrogen for Road Transport, and discover whether this technology is the golden bullet of Net Zero, or just a load of "hot air". Currently there are only two truly zero-emission transport technologies - Electric Vehicles (EVs) or Hydrogen. EVs have been getting a lot of press, but it's important to understand how Hydrogen compares and whether it is a competing or complimentary technology. This self-paced online module will help you understand this amazing new technology and some of the ways it could impact your own business.
