Electric vehicles will soon be easier to identify the UK after it has been approved for green-colored license plates to be used on zero-emission cars.<\/span><\/p>\n

The green plates are set to be rolled out from autumn, UK transport secretary Grant Shapps confirmed under plans to drive a green economic recovery.<\/span><\/p>\n

As part of the government\u2019s plans to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, drivers will be encouraged to make the switch to electric vehicles through the introduction of green number plates. The plates will make it easier for cars to be identified as zero-emission vehicles, helping local authorities design and put in place new policies to incentivize people to own and drive them.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, drivers could benefit from local initiatives such as cheaper parking and cost-free entry into zero-emission zones where those with a green number plate will be recognized as eligible.<\/span><\/p>\n

The plates will be identifiable by a green flash on the left-hand side and will be available for zero-emission vehicles only.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cA green recovery is key to helping us achieve our net zero carbon commitments while also promoting economic growth.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cGreen number plates could unlock a number of incentives for drivers and increase awareness of cleaner vehicles on our roads, showing people that a greener transport future is within our grasp.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re supporting small businesses to develop the transport tech of the future through a multi-million pound investment, ensuring that UK businesses remain at the forefront of low carbon innovation and research,\u201d Shapps said.<\/span><\/p>\n

This follows the conclusion of a consultation, inviting comments from the public, local authorities and industry stakeholders from a range of sectors including motoring and consumer groups and vehicle manufacturers on how best to introduce green number plates.<\/span><\/p>\n

To further accelerate the government\u2019s plans to drive a green recovery, \u00a312m funding for ground-breaking research into the zero-emission market has also been announced to develop greener vehicles and help improve vehicle charging technology.<\/span><\/p>\n

The funding, made available through the Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) and delivered through Innovate UK, will see \u00a310m for a new Zero-Emission Vehicle Innovation Competition. This will invite applicants to bid for project funding to support advancements in both battery electric and hydrogen vehicles, as well as charging infrastructure.<\/span><\/p>\n
