Newport City Council, GB adds the first electric refuse collection truck in Wales

Newport City Council, GB First Electric Refuse Truck Wales

Complete

The Dennis Eagle eCollect combines advanced telematics technology with enough range for a full day of collections. The truck's batteries and components are designed to last as long as a diesel-powered truck. Council officials plan a citywide deployment of the eCollect with an early focus on neighborhoods with air quality issues. The shared investment by Newport City Council and the Welsh government reduces local emissions by up to 35 tons per year.
