Health Secretary Wes Streeting faced calls last night to ditch the 'unreasonable' Net Zero plan to amaze all UK ambulances within 15 years.
The cash-strapped NHS is preparing to abandon all its diesel ambulances and set up nearly 5,000 charging points at medical facilities and ambulance stations to power a fleet of electric-powered lorries.
Health chiefs have refused to expose how much the brand-new ambulances will cost, however main figures seen by the Mail on Sunday expose it will cost ₤ 100million simply to upgrade the grid and electrical facilities needed for charging points.
The MoS can also expose there are presently simply two electric-powered ambulances getting travelers in England - compared with more than 4,500 diesel ambulances.
There are 160 other electric emergency automobiles for paramedics, consisting of 2 vehicles, 16 response vans and 3 motorcycles.
