Renewable energy The majority of the energy we use in our operations comes from purchased grid electricity. Our network also uses electricity generated by stationary generators, which are mostly powered by fossil fuels (diesel or petrol). Our fleet of vehicles is fuelled by a mix of diesel, petrol and, increasingly, purchased electricity. This year, we continued our efforts to phase out fossil fuels from our operations in favour of renewable energy sources. Renewable energy 1 Percentage (%) 2020 2021
