Uhulumeni umemezele izinhlelo zokusiza abantu abakhubazekile ukuthi bakhokhise izimoto zikagesi (EV) ngokwethula “izindinganiso zokufinyeleleka” ezintsha. Ngaphansi kweziphakamiso ezimenyezelwe uMnyango Wezokuthutha (i-DfT), uhulumeni uzobeka “incazelo ecacile” yokuthi indawo yokushaja ifinyeleleka kanjani.
Ngaphansi kwalolu hlelo, izindawo zokushaja zizohlelwa ngezigaba ezintathu: “afinyeleleke ngokugcwele”, “afinyeleleke ngokwengxenye” kanye “nokungafinyeleleki”. Isinqumo sizothathwa ngemva kokucabangela izici eziningi, okuhlanganisa isikhala phakathi kwamabholadi, ubude beyunithi yokushaja nobukhulu bezindawo zokupaka. Ngisho nokuphakama konqenqema kuzocatshangelwa.
Umhlahlandlela uzodalwa yi-British Standards Institute, esebenza ngokwentando ye-DfT kanye nenhlangano esiza abakhubazekile ye-Motability. Lezi zinhlangano zizosebenzisana neHhovisi Lezimoto Ezikhipha Igazi (i-OZEV) ukuze zixhumane nabaqhubi bezindawo zokukhokhisa kanye nezinhlangano ezisiza abakhubazekile ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuthi amazinga afanelekile.
Kwethenjwa ukuthi umhlahlandlela, ozofika ngo-2022, uzonikeza imboni imiyalelo ecacile yokuthi ungenza kanjani izindawo zokushaja zibe lula kubantu abakhubazekile ukuthi basebenzise. Kuzophinde kunikeze abashayeli ithuba lokuhlonza ngokushesha izindawo zokushaja ezilungele izidingo zabo.
“Kunengozi yokuthi abakhubazekile basale ngemuva njengoba sekusondele izinguquko zase-UK ezimotweni ezisebenza ngogesi kanti iMotability ifuna ukuqinisekisa ukuthi lokhu akwenzeki,” kusho isikhulu esiphezulu sale nhlangano, uBarry Le Grys MBE. “Siyakwamukela ukuthakasela okuvela kuhulumeni ocwaningweni lwethu lokushaja nokufinyeleleka kwezimoto zikagesi futhi sijabule ngokubambisana kwethu neHhovisi Lezimoto Ezingakhiqizi Igesi ukuze siqhubekisele phambili lo msebenzi.
“Sibheke ngabomvu ukusebenzisana ukuze sakhe amazinga okufinyeleleka ahamba phambili emhlabeni wonke kanye nokweseka ukuzibophezela kwe-UK ekuzuzeni i-zero emissions. I-Motability ibheke phambili ekusaseni lapho ukushajwa kwezimoto zikagesi kuhlanganisa wonke umuntu. "
Khonamanjalo ungqongqoshe wezokuthutha uRachel Maclean uthe umhlahlandlela omusha uzokwenza kube lula kubashayeli abakhubazekile ukuthi bakhokhise izimoto zabo zikagesi, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi bahlala kuphi.
