Blaenau Gwent council to introduce fleet of electric vehicles

A group of electric powered vehicles will become the first of their kind to feature in the Blaenau Gwent Council's fleet, it was announced this week.

Four electric powered general purpose vans are ready to be rolled out with the aim of helping reduce the council’s carbon footprint in the coming years.

Purchased with funding from the Welsh Government Energy Service, the vehicles will not only be quieter than traditional vans but are also capable of travelling up to about 140 miles between charges.
