Well, green licence plates entitling electric vehicle drivers access to bus lanes and better parking options could be on the way. 

The idea was raised at a Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland webinar yesterday as part of a renewed push to reach Climate Action Plan targets of nearly one million Electric Vehicles on our roads by 2030. 

Should we have ‘green licences’ for electric car users?  Would you support better travel and parking options for them?  

Andrea was joined by man callers with their views.
