Gavin Brooking, managing director of Tootbus UK, stated: «The green tourism is at the core of our corporate strategy and represents a huge investment for us. We have acknowledged the massive potential that the shift to a sustainable end-to-end electric fleet might have in helping us hit our targets of emission reduction. With its broad expertise in the sector of smart energy management, VEV is for us the ideal partner with a tailored turn-key solution».
VEV has shared the details of its new partnership with Tootbus, underlining they expect their green energy solutions will help the touristic bus company save 15,567 kg of carbon emissions yearly.
