Wes Streeting Urged to Ditch Bid to Electrify all UK Ambulances > 자유게시판

Health Secretary Wes Streeting faced calls last night to ditch the 'unreasonable' Net Zero strategy to all UK ambulances within 15 years.

The cash-strapped NHS is preparing to desert all its diesel ambulances and install almost 5,000 charging points at hospitals and ambulance stations to power a fleet of electric-powered cars.

Health chiefs have declined to expose just how much the new ambulances will cost, but official figures seen by the Mail on Sunday reveal it will cost ₤ 100million simply to upgrade the grid and electrical facilities required for charging points.

The MoS can likewise reveal there are currently just two electric-powered ambulances getting travelers in England - compared with more than 4,500 diesel ambulances.

There are 160 other electrical emergency situation automobiles for paramedics, consisting of two cars and trucks, 16 action vans and 3 motorbikes.
