Drawing on the conclusions of the King Review of low carbon cars and the work of the UK’s Committee on Climate Change, the lecture focused on the vehicle, information and fuel technologies, which could deliver the 80-90% reduction in vehicle emissions that will be required to meet our 2050 targets.
