The Green Fleet Review (GFR) is an excellent starting point for any organisation wanting to reduce carbon emissions from transport while, at the same time, tackle the spiraling financial cost of travel and transport. The EST GFR programme provides fully funded advice to operators of fleets of 50+ cars and/or vans, the only commitment required from the client is the provision of accurate data.
All business use vehicles of 3.5 tonnes and under count towards the 50 vehicle threshold and Grey Fleet vehicles (staff cars used for business and funded by mileage payments) also count as a quarter (ie 4 Grey Fleet = 1 Fleet). Gfleet Services Ltd is a panel consultancy for the EST's Transport Advice programme and much of the company's work with clients starts with this low-risk introduction to green transport.
By applying for a Green Fleet Review you can access at least three days of a consultant's time fully funded by the Energy Saving Trust and you can find out more about the service on: EST Green Fleet Review Scheme
The application form for the Green Fleet Review is a Word document which can be downloaded from this site: Application Form (98 Kb).
You may also be interested in the associated accreditation scheme which follows on from the Green Fleet Review and which - for a small annual payment - allows you to access more advice and support.
