The Energy Saving Trust's eCargo bike research project will demonstrate how ecargo bikes can address both business needs and the climate emergency. We looked at organizations trialling an eCargo bike for months in Scotland as part of the project.
Eleven organizations are taking part in the Energy Saving Trust's eCargo Bicycle Research Project , funded by Transport Scotland.

The project, supported by the eBike Grant Fund, offers organizations in Scotland the opportunity to trial an ecargo bike for months for free. These trials will allow Transport Scotland and the Energy Sa Phone Number List ving Trust to gather data and user experiences to inform the potential of e-bike use to address both business needs and the climate emergency.
Successful submissions to the project demonstrated a wide range of applications for ecargo bike testing, such as last-mile deliveries and short-distance staff travel.
Edinburgh-based Farr Out Deliveries is a cargo bike courier service, aiming to make cargo bike deliveries a key element of the city's green future. More than , packages have been delivered on ecargo bikes in the three months since Farr Out Deliveries began, illustrating how businesses and individuals can replace car and van delivery routes with an electric bike.
The ecargo bike is suitable for bulk delivery activities as it has a higher load capacity, a weatherproof place to secure the load and allows for greater cycling autonomy.
Act Now was also successful in its application. The organization runs a number of projects aimed at maintaining, improving and promoting the coastal and rural environment in Argyll and the islands.

Working in partnership with communities, public agencies and private organizations, they design and implement projects spanning conservation, tourism, health and wellness.
The ecargo trial bike will be used by cafes, local manufacturing businesses, nurseries and allotments across Argyll and Bute, and will reduce the need for staff, volunteers and the public to use their cars.
Jamie Joyce, project director at Act Now, said: “The Act Now project is delighted to have been accepted by the Energy Saving Trust as part of the eCargo Bike Research Project. “We look forward to working with Mid Argyll organizations who can make full use of the ecargo bike as a real sustainable alternative to traditional car and van use.”
RSPB Scotland, a leading nature charity in Scotland, is providing the eCargo bike to employees filming nature videos for social media. This presents the opportunity to complete a carbon neutral filming process while reducing reliance on leased vehicles. The eCargo bike will be used to transport staff members and their equipment to various locations across Scotland.
