Non-road mobile machinery: decarbonisation options

This was published under the 2022 to 2024 Sunak Conservative government

Summary

We're seeking evidence on how non-road mobile machinery (NRMM) might decarbonise as part of the government's wider net zero ambitions.

Call for evidence description

Non-road mobile machinery (NRMM) broadly refers to any mobile machine, transportable equipment or vehicle not intended for the transport of goods or passengers on the road, and which has a combustion engine. Examples include construction machinery and agricultural machinery.

We’re seeking evidence on areas including:

  • how NRMM is currently used across the economy
  • the decarbonisation options available to NRMM, including efficiency measures, process changes, and fuel switching technologies
  • the possible opportunities and barriers to deploying decarbonisation options
  • whether existing policies are sufficient to decarbonise NRMM in line with net zero
  • whether the Industrial Decarbonisation Strategy policy principles should also apply in determining the case for further government intervention to support NRMM decarbonisation

At the end of the call for evidence, you will have the opportunity to provide further supporting evidence not covered by the questions but which you consider to be relevant.

We will acknowledge all responses.
