In answer to calls for 2050 net-zero emissions and a transition to electric vehicles by the National Development Council, the Resource Circulation Administration (RECA) of the Ministry of Environment (MOENV) will be promoting a “gradual transition to a fully electric fleet of recycling vehicles”. The electric recycling vehicles will be low in CO2 emissions, noise and energy consumption, and be examples of exhaust emission reduction and compliance with trends toward green transportation. The Chiayi City Government selected Kuozui Motors to launch the first electric recycling truck, introduced to the public on October 21. The vehicle then became the first electric-powered truck to run a regular recycling route in Taiwan, providing an estimated reduction of 60.9% of CO2 emissions.
