Hans van der Helm, director of Tuin&Park – Van den Berg Machines, bought an electric car back in 2016, seeing that it would allow him to reduce his CO2 emissions. When 3 years later a suitable electric van also came on the market for transporting his machines, he bought it immediately. With this purchase, Van der Helm is well prepared for upcoming environmental laws for transport in urban areas. In fact, from 2025, at least 30 cities in the Netherlands will establish emission-free zones for inner-city transport.
