Electric vehicles and sustainable transport

Transport is a powerful enabler of economic growth and change. It is also a major source of greenhouse gas emissions. In recent years, decarbonising transport has becomes both a high-profile challenge and an outstanding opportunity for governments, investors and businesses.

The drivers of change are regulation, legislation and investment. Moving towards a net zero transport system means changes in the delivery of public transport and better integration of mobility solutions, such as MaaS. The way we move people and goods is undergoing systemic change, with a transition from petrol and diesel cars to electric and alternative fuel vehicles together with the infrastructure and supply chain to support them.

Our lawyers have built our knowledge and expertise in this area through working with a wide range of clients across industry and the public sector, from established transport operators to cutting-edge tech businesses influencing the international e-mobility and alternative fuels sectors.

We're working across many different modes of transport and forms of mobility, including electric vehicles, e-bikes, e-scooters, e-trucks and hydrogen trains. We advise on all aspects of decarbonisation in the sector, from manufacture and supply agreements through vehicle leasing and availability-based models, the deployment of EV infrastructure, advanced technology-enabled solutions and the delivery of renewable energy.
