Sixth GF100 Most Influential list revealed

News

The sixth annual GF100 Most Influential list has been revealed, recognising our pick of the one hundred individuals that have made a positive impact on the transport decarbonisation agenda over the year.

Despite another year with pandemic challenges, the green transport agenda has continued to accelerate. 2021 saw the government make the pledge to fully decarbonise transport by 2050 and to end the sale of all new combustion vehicles by 2040.

2021 was the most successful year in history for electric vehicle uptake as more new battery electric vehicles were registered than over the previous five years combined, according to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT).

Despite commitments from government and strong electric vehicle sales, there are still many challenges ahead to reach the UK’s net zero targets. But the appetite and determination to eliminate emissions is strong, as demonstrated by the impressive individuals in our 2022 GF100 Most Influential list.
    
The GF100 Most Influential is made up of individuals that have made significant progress in their work to cut harmful emissions, and who are happy to share advice and best practice to others.
    
There are a number of new entrants, which has caused some considerable movement. Many of the new entrants are award-winners from the 2021 GREENFLEET Awards, such as Steve Winter, who heads up the fleet at British Gas / Centrica. With an aim to electrify its vast fleet by 2025, Steve is already making good progress, with 700 electric vans on fleet and 3,000 more to be delivered by the end of this year.

Congratulations to those on the list. For considerations on next year’s list, upload your nominations to gf100.greenfleet.net/form/submissions
