In this paper, written in collaboration with GridBeyond and Lancaster University, we examine the landscape for EV fleets and the opportunities for businesses to not only secure additional revenues but to further boost their green credentials by helping the grid to increase levels of renewables generation in the energy mix.

At the same time dramatic changes are required to the way we create and store energy to meet carbon reduction targets.
