Dundee City Council is celebrating more national success for its drive to net zero and use of electric vehicles.  

Logistics UK recently announced the winners of its Van Awards 2024.   

Dundee City Council won the Van Decarbonisation category against competition from industry giants like Aspire Defence, John Lewis Partnership, Reflex Vehicle Hire, Speedy Hire and the AA.   

The award put a national spotlight on Dundee’s electrification and decarbonisation strategy  

Simultaneously, Dundee City Council will now be shortlisted for the Van Business of the Year category at the prestigious Logistics Awards 2024 taking place in December.  

Fair Work, Economic Growth and Infrastructure convener Cllr Steven Rome said: "This award represents more national recognition for the journey Dundee is undertaking.    

“We have accomplished much, and we are working on actions set out in the Council’s Net Zero Transition Plan to become a more sustainable city and a more modern council.” 

Kevin Green, Director of Policy & Communications at Logistics UK said: “The competition was fierce this year and being selected as a finalist is a great achievement itselfOver three million people employed across industries ranging from engineering and construction to emergency and rescue services rely on a van for their job, so it is impossible to understate the contribution the sector makes to all our lives and the broader economy.”
