Andy Eastlake

Andy Eastlake’s face will be familiar to most people who have worked in the low carbon fleet industry, as he has been involved with it for almost 20 years. The Zemo Partnership (formerly the Low Carbon Vehicle Partnership) is focused on zero emission transport, and once again Andy and his team skilfully navigated a very busy period during 2022. The organisation launched a joint government-industry action plan for zero emission Powered Light Vehicles (PLVs) in the UK in collaboration with the Motor Cycle Industry Association – with a display of PLVs at the Cenex-LCV event – and strengthened its Renewable Fuels Assurance Scheme for higher blend renewable fuels, which was a highly commended 2022 GREENFLEET Industry Innovation award entry. An EV battery recycling webinar with panel speakers attracted over 100 delegates, and Zemo was appointed to lead a three-year DfT research programme into the emissions from HGV auxiliary engines. This year will see the organisation celebrate its 20th anniversary, working closely with members to reduce road transport emissions and influencing government. Andy is a well-like and respected authority on transport decarbonisation.
