Britain’s upper house of parliament said on Wednesday it was launching an inquiry into electric vehicles (EVs) that will examine the government’s approach to phasing out fossil-fuel models, charging infrastructure and end-of-life disposal of EVs.

The UK government has announced a ban on the sale of new fossil-fuel-only model cars by 2030, and on hybrid vehicles that have both a large battery and combustion engine by 2035.

The House of Lords’ environment and climate change committee said the aim of the inquiry was to “understand how the Government will achieve its target of decarbonising cars and vans in the UK”.
