Commenting on warnings from the International Energy Agency of a petrol and diesel supply crunch [1]Â Colin Walker, Head of Transport at the Climate & Intelligence Unit (ECIU), said:
"The IEA's warning is yet another reminder of how exposed British drivers are to price spikes cause by wars fought elsewhere in the world. Let's be clear, if government heeded calls from parts of the car industry to water down EV policy, families will stay vulnerable for longer. Electric cars are increasingly charged by British renewables as more wind and solar farms are built, and thanks to Government policy, more and more and now reaching the second hand market where most of us buy our cars."
