Renewable Energy Association appoints new head of EVs

Date: 29 March 2017   |   Author: Daniel Puddicombe

The Renewable Energy Association has appointed Matthew Trevaskis to the new role of head of electric vehicles.

In 2005, he founded Ecodrive, an EV fleet trialing company, while he has also worked with Cornwall Council as an advisor to its Plugged in Places project.

He will champion the use of ultra-low emission vehicles in his new role, while one of his responsibilities will be to integrate EVs into the national grid, while also lobbying the Government for new infrastructure and transport policies.

"I'm very excited to be joining the REA at this time in the development of renewables and the challenges faced by the motor industry. I see great opportunities in the convergence of renewable generation, on all scales, with the move towards greater numbers of plug-in vehicles, especially the longer-range yet affordable EVs now coming to market," he said.  "The motor industry needs to shift its drivetrains rapidly towards zero-emission operation, especially where vehicles are used in our towns and cities that are suffering acute air-quality issues."
