The Modec van produces no Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions if the electricity used to charge the van is obtained from renewable sources.
There are at least 8 suppliers of renewable electricity in the UK. Connecting to one of these is both quick and simple, and will have a minimal impact on running costs.
The Modec van emits none of the local air pollutants traditional road vehicles produce. These are primarily Nitrous Oxides (NOx) and Particulate Matter (PM10) which cause effects such as premature deaths and the exacerbation of respiratory and cardiovascular diseases including asthma, along with other toxins such as carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbons (HC - Benzene and other volatile organic compounds).
Economy
The Modec van costs from 23,000, depending on model. On a whole life or pence per mile basis the Modec van is cheaper to run than a conventional diesel equivalent.
Sustainability
The Modec van is more than 90% recyclable.
