There’s still time for vehicle fleet operators and taxi drivers in Cornwall to register for Cornwall Council’s free one-day masterclass on Wednesday, January 31 designed to help them reduce emissions and cut their fuel costs.

Sponsored by CGON, the Driving Innovation masterclass is aimed at businesses in Cornwall and the wider south-west. 

The event will bring together key players from industry and the public sector to provide fleet decision-makers, environmental managers, taxi drivers and all those with an interest in lowering vehicle fleet emissions with information. 

The day will include demonstrations of new hydrogen retrofit technology and electric vehicles. 

There will also be presentations about the ECO Stars Fleet Recognition Scheme, which encourages fleet operators to improve efficiency and reduce fuel consumption and emissions, as well as the Low Carbon Vehicle Partnership, and zero emission electric vehicles.

The free one-day masterclass takes place at Chy Trevail, Beacon Technology Business Park, Bodmin from 9.30am-4.30pm.
