Topics to include:
An examination of EPR, summary overview of the key points in the EPR consultation.

The race is on to decarbonise council operations across the UK, with 67% of councils having declared a climate emergency and the government’s commitments to Net Zero by 2050. As local authorities look to tackle emissions and air pollution, attention has turned to the waste collection rounds still reliant on refuse collection vehicles (RCVs) that are powered by diesel-fuelled engines. It is a well-known fact that alternatives to the traditional diesel RCVs are going to be a considerable piece of this jigsaw.
