UK universities have surged ahead of the national average in terms of the number of purely electric powered vehicles that they own.
A freedom of information request sent to 116 institutions found that 7.73 per cent of all university owned vehicles are purely electric powered, compared to just 0.11 per cent across all UK vehicle registrations.
Of the 114 institutions which responded to the request, made by intelligentcarleasing.com, 58.77 per cent owned at least one electric vehicle. Of those who do not currently own any electric vehicles, many noted their plans to invest in such technology in the near future.
Pete McAllister, who conducted the research, said: “With a fast growing green energy sector in the UK electric vehicles are fast becoming an all-round low carbon driving option. It’s brilliant to see such a high adoption rate amongst the UK’s universities and hopefully this is a good indicator of the broader motoring picture in years to come.”
