部長諾曼·貝克,議會交通運輸部(DFT)局副局長,先后推出了一個新的500萬美元(780萬美元)英鎊清潔總線技術基金,這將允許地方當局申辦補助當地巴士加裝減少污染的技術升級,如清潔的發(fā)動機,生物甲烷(可再生天然氣)經營。授予期間宣布部長貝克(第一)英國生物甲烷燃氣汽車2013年在倫敦會議的主題演講。
地方當局將能夠申辦補助高達1英鎊萬來自交通運輸部的清潔總線技術基金。
該計劃是繼除了12萬元的資金英鎊上個月宣布213個新的低碳巴士在最新一輪的綠色巴士基金,包括31生物甲烷為燃料的公交車。驛馬是獲得資助的申請人,接收資金向購買17斯堪尼亞/ ADL環(huán)保300單層生物甲烷燃氣客車。雖然上個月公布的新巴士,這是新一輪的資金用于綠色技術的巴士加裝電流。
談到在英國的第一個生物甲烷和天然氣汽車會議,市政廳,可持續(xù)交通運輸部長諾曼·貝克說,“用沼氣的潛在好處是巨大的,所以它高興地看到這樣發(fā)生和提高知名度的事件。”
“以總線是一個偉大的和環(huán)保的交通方式,并與政府保持優(yōu)惠總線傳遞,它是免費的老人。然而,一些較舊的公交車是不是綠色,因為我想,所以我們已經宣布了這筆錢為當地的主管部門,如東薩塞克斯郡議會,投標,以減少污染的設備,改造舊巴士。這樣,我們還可以進一步最大限度地提高環(huán)境效益的旅游巴士。“
夏洛特頓,行政長官在厭氧消化和沼氣協會(ADBA)說,“生物甲烷沼氣用于脫碳重型貨車為數不多的選擇之一。生物甲烷車輛試驗已顯示出巨大的空氣質素和噪音降低的好處,以及來自使用這種超低碳燃料的溫室氣體排放量明顯減少。“
Minister Norman Baker, Parliamentary Under Secretary for the Department for Transport (DfT), has launched a new £5 million (USD 7.8 million) Clean Bus Technology Fund which will allow local authorities to bid for grants to upgrade local buses by retrofitting pollution reducing technologies, such as cleaner engines operating on biomethane (renewable natural gas). The grant was announced during Minister Baker’s keynote address to the (first) UK Biomethane & Gas Vehicle Conference 2013 in London.
Local authorities will be able to bid for grants of up to £1 million from the Department for Transport’s Clean Bus Technology Fund.
The scheme is in addition to the £12 million funding announced last month for 213 new low carbon buses in the latest round of the Green Bus Fund, including 31 biomethane-fuelled buses. Stagecoach was a successful grant applicant, receiving funding toward the purchase of seventeen Scania/ADL Enviro 300 single-decker biomethane gas buses. Whilst last month’s announcement was for new buses, this new round of funding is for retrofitting current buses with green technology.
Speaking at the UK’s first Biomethane and Gas Vehicle Conference, City Hall, Sustainable Transport Minister Norman Baker said, “The potential benefits of using biogas are huge so it is pleasing to see events like this taking place and raising its profile.”
“Taking the bus is a great and environmentally friendly way of getting around and with the government maintaining the concessionary bus passes it is free for the elderly. However, some older buses are not as green as I would like so we have announced this money for local authorities, such as East Sussex County Council, to bid on in order to retrofit older buses with pollution reducing equipment. That way we can yet further maximise the environmental benefits of travelling by bus.”
Charlotte Morton, Chief Executive at Anaerobic Digestion and Biogas Association (ADBA) said, “Biomethane from biogas is one of the few options for decarbonising heavy goods vehicles. Trials on biomethane vehicles have shown huge air quality and noise reduction benefits as well as the clear reduction in greenhouse gas emissions which come from using such an ultra low carbon fuel.”
