Monmouthshire County Council launches 12 vehicle car club to cut grey fleet and emissions
Monmouthshire County Council has introduced a car club pilot with Enterprise Car Club, deploying 12 hybrid and electric vehicles at key council sites to replace ageing pool cars and reduce staff reliance on personal vehicles for business travel. Employees can now book low emission cars by the hour or day via an app, aiming to lower carbon emissions and operational costs previously driven by grey fleet use. Councillor Catrin Maby said the scheme offers convenient, affordable access to low emission transport for staff.
Why it matters
The pilot demonstrates how local authorities are shifting procurement from owned fleets to flexible car club models, potentially opening recurring service contracts for mobility providers. It also signals growing public sector demand for turnkey EV and hybrid solutions that reduce capital expenditure and grey fleet liability.
