We haven't quite Kissed Oil Goodbye completely yet, but we're getting there!

In the last few years we've converted more than 70% of our vehicle fleet to electric or plug-in hybrid. Plus, we're now a proud member of EV100, an initiative to help reduce carbon emissions and make electric transport the new normal by 2030.
