London Ambulance Service adds 77 electric emergency vehicles

Reported byElectrive ↗·Sourced by Goodlede

What backs it

London Ambulance Service deployed 77 battery-electric emergency vehicles (37 ambulances and 40 fast-response cars), expanding its fleet to 41 electric ambulances, 81 electric fast-response cars, and 3 electric motorcycles—the UK's largest fully electric ambulance fleet. The service has reduced carbon emissions by 12% since 2022 and targets a further 20% reduction by 2029.

Worth noting

This is a single-organization fleet expansion; broader decarbonization of UK emergency services depends on similar commitments across all NHS trusts and regions.
