Summary

In this episode, Kevin and Tim dive into sustainable power for the UK Hire industry with Alan Guthrie, founder of the Alan Guthrie On Hire Blog.  He shares stories of hire company selflessness during the pandemic, explores the changes in sustainability and battery energy, and discusses the future of these technologies in the hire industry. He also addresses opportunities for different hire companies when adopting new technologies. Finally, we discuss the role of telematics and data in promoting sustainable equipment. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the future of sustainability and the hire industry, as well as Alan's plans.
