Openreach has begun testing four electric vans in Milton Keynes and BT’s fleet management division has worked with green vehicle manufacturers to convert four zero emission vehicles that will be tested for a number of things, including suitability for engineers’ work patterns, battery life and energy usage. As well as being trialled in Milton Keynes (one of the first cities and towns that are piloting charging points for electrical vehicles) the vans will also be tested at Openreach’s Stratford
The vans have a restricted top speed of 70miles per hour and can cover up to 100miles between battery charges, considerably more than average 60 to 65 miles per day covered by an Openreach van, on a normal day.
