The aftermarket journey to net zero: TotalEnergies appears on PMM podcast

Workshops up and down the country, from sole traders through to national servicing groups, are adapting their businesses to both improve their own environmental footprint and evolve to meet the needs of the growing fleet of alternative fuelled vehicles – including incorporating new skills, services and solutions for electrification.

At the same time, workshops play a critical role in ensuring that existing ICE vehicles, which continue to be the dominant mode of transport on our roads, are maintained to a high standard to increase engine lifespans and optimise performance – both critical factors in reducing emissions and lowering the carbon cost of motoring.

David Valentyne talked to PMM to discuss how TotalEnergies has transformed its offering to help workshops adapt and thrive in the energy transition.
