| 摘要： | Westminster Council has invested £20 million in the roll-out of 45 new electric refuse collection vehicles (RCVs). Westminster will gradually replace its entire 80-strong truck fleet. Many of these vehicles will be housed at the new fully electric depot at Landmann Way, near Bermondsey. The electric vehicles will charge their batteries by drawing electricity from an adjacent energy recovery facility which uses the waste collected from homes and businesses in Westminster. Westminster's fleet, operated by its environmental partner Veolia, is said to complete 50 million collections every year. As part of the deal, Veolia worked to procure, design and operate the new depot and charging infrastructure, which will be capable of charging five vehicles simultaneously. Smart charging will allow the partnership to support the National Grid by receiving power at non-peak times to maximise local resources. The South East London Combined Heat and Power facility will provide the site with 3.3GWh of electricity per year via a private wire to charge the e-fleet. |
