To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment has been made on the role of biomethane in decarbonising Heavy Goods Vehicles; and if he will make a statement.

The Department has supported operator trials using biomethane in heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) through our recently completed £20m Low Emission Freight and Logistics Trials (LEFT) programme, delivered with Innovate UK. A final report will be published this month and its conclusions will support the Transport Decarbonisation Plan, which is due to be published later this year.

Asked by: Alan Campbell (Labour - Tynemouth)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, when he plans to publish a strategy on decarbonising transport.

Answered by Baroness Maclean of Redditch

We are committed to going further and faster to tackle climate change. Our bold and ambitious plan to achieve net zero emissions across all transport will help make our towns and cities better places to live, create new jobs, as well as improving air quality and health. We are working with industry and communities around the country to develop the plan and expect to publish it in the Autumn ahead of COP26 in Glasgow.
