The start point for the best source of fleet information |
A new series of white papers on how vehicle electrification is affecting the remarketing industry has been launched by the Vehicle Remarketing Association (VRA).
The first in the series, available to members via the VRA website, is entitled 'Electric Vehicle Charging: What the Remarketing Sector Needs to Know', and written by Euan McTurk of Plug Life Consulting.
The document covers topics including the current state of public charging infrastructure, the types of charging facilities remarketing companies might need, advice on how remarketing companies should handle EV movements, and what the remarketing sector needs to do to maximise take-up of second-hand EVs.
VRA chair Philip Nothard said: "We've felt for some time that the remarketing sector is being neglected when it comes to published information and advice on electrification, and these white papers are, in part, our attempt to redress that balance.
"We are finding that there is huge and growing demand for briefings on the remarketing of EVs from our members.
"They are aware that the numbers of electric cars and vans seen so far in the used sector are just a trickle compared to the flood that will arrive over the next couple of years, and recognise their need to prepare for this shift. Also, of course, the collapse in values seen in recent months has created a huge amount of trepidation and uncertainty.
"Through the white papers, we'll be attempting to answer some of the sector's biggest questions and create a bedrock for future discussions and best practice."
