Cenex will be hosting its first-ever Heavy Duty Vehicle (HDV) Arena at this year’s LCV2014.

The HDV Arena, supported by the Technology Strategy Board (TSB) and the Transport Community at the KTN will be a brand new exhibition space at LCV2014, taking place on 10 and 11 September at Millbrook Proving Ground.

Throughout the two-day event, The HDV Arena will feature a variety of truck operators and consortia members from the Low Carbon Truck Trial. The Trial, which aims to initiate a publicly-accessible gas refuelling network in the UK, is co-funded by the TSB and the Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) and has already been provided with £11.3m from Government.

Robert Evans, CEO of Cenex said, “We are extremely excited at the addition of the HDV Arena at this year’s LCV2014 event and we would like to thank the TSB and The Transport Community at the KTN for their support. There is a huge demand to cut emissions in the HDV sector and this showcase will prove that it can be done. HDV is a growing market and we are hopeful that the arena will prove invaluable to those in the sector.”

Tessa Darley, head of transport at KTN said, “With the KTN having been instrumental in bringing together a number of the competition participants, it will be great to see successful Low Carbon Truck Trial projects showcasing at LCV2014. This new HDV Arena will undoubtedly provide inspiration to potential new entrants to this expanding market.”
