Road Transport Expo 2024
Highlights from RTX 2024
RTX 2024 took place over three days at the NAEC Stoneleigh from 4-6 June 2024, and bp was there to join the discussions on the current hot topics for fleet managers:
- Fuelling fleets with a range of energy solutions needed for trucks today, as well as tomorrow
- The importance of traditional fuels with 90% of fleet miles still expected to be powered this way in 2030
- How different fleet cards can meet the needs of fleets of all sizes
Lower carbon fuels
Lauren Bowman and David Purvis, Key Account Managers, talked visitors through the latest fleet developments with bp aiming to be first choice for its mobility and convenience customers.
bp now offers integrated energy solutions including traditional fuel, one of the UK’s largest charging networks, bp pulse depot charging solutions, bp bioenergy HVO and GASREC biomethane.
Supporting the transition to EVs
Much of the talk at RTX this year was about low-carbon solutions for fleets - an area of real expertise for bp.
Adrian Brabazon, UK Fleet Sales Manager, confirmed that bp is well placed to support fleets on their journey to decarbonisation with a range of fuel solutions. Of these, EV is already starting to make the biggest impact. To maintain the current momentum, bp plans to invest £1 billion in the UK over the next 10 years on electric vehicle charging in the UK.
