ABU DHABI, 25th October, 2024 (WAM) — Corporate signatories of the ‘Road2.0 powered by UACA’ initiative have published a declaration of their intent to adopt and promote zero emission vehicles (vehicles operating without producing tailpipe emissions), in a first-of-its-kind showcase of the robust corporate demand for EVs in the UAE.
The declaration serves as a call to action for the EV Ecosystem, inviting stakeholders to join forces in order to mobilise the swift uptake of EVs across commercial fleets.
Road2.0 is powered by UACA – the UAE Alliance for Climate Action, which is convened by environmental charity and NGO Emirates Nature-WWF. It is the leading initiative focusing on decarbonising commercial transport in the UAE, endorsed by the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure (MoEI). In addition, UACA is endorsed by the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE).
Supported by talabat and Unilever, Road2.0 is currently led by 17 signatories that are pioneering efforts to test and scale commercial EVs within their fleet, aiming to potentially achieve 30 percent decarbonisation of signatories’ UAE road transport fleet by 2030, and 100 percent by 2040.
The collaborative endeavour demonstrates strong corporate leadership in support of the UAE’s Net Zero by 2050…
