Ulva's drive towards all electric vehicles

BBC News Published image captionUlva is home to 11 people Residents of Ulva are to be given access to electric all-terrain vehicles to help them get around the island. The community-owned Hebridean isle has no tarred roads and islanders often use petrol or diesel quad bikes or similar vehicles for transport. North West Mull Community Woodland Company, which purchased Ulva estate in 2018, hopes these can eventually be replaced by a pool of electric ones. It said the move would help preserve Ulva s tranquil environment . image captionAn all-terrain vehicle pool is to be made available to residents of Ulva The first two electric vehicles have been delivered and are due to be made available in a few weeks time, with plans to purchase a third.

Islanders are together in electric dreams

Ulva off Mull was bought out by the community for £4.4 million, three years years ago. Now the organisation which led the community buyout hopes that buying an electric off-road fleet for a transport sharing scheme will encourage people moving to the island not to bring their own vehicles. An electric quad bike and electric “utility task vehicle” – where two people can sit side-by-side – arrived on the island last week, and will be recharged using solar panels. A membership scheme is being established for use of the vehicles, which were funded by the Scottish Government, which residents can book for tasks such as transporting their shopping from the ferry and moving other heavy items.
