EV Provider Wins Green Business Award at 2025 Wales Business Awards
Cardiff-based electric vehicle (EV) provider, FleetEV, has won the Green Business Award at the 2025 Wales Business Awards.
Founded in 2021, FleetEV focuses on making the switch to EVs practical and efficient through comprehensive leasing, salary sacrifice, and fleet solutions tailored to diverse client needs, across public and private sectors.
As the lead supplier on the Welsh Government Commercial Delivery (WGCD) framework for electric vehicle provision, FleetEV has delivered significant impact, saving the Welsh public sector over £1.2 million in the past year alone while pledging to generate £2.5 million in social value during 2024/25.
The net zero business was recognised as the leading green business that adopted innovative and effective eco-friendly practices, leading to measurable reductions in their carbon output and a positive environmental and business impact.
Jarrad Morris, Founder and CEO at FleetEV, said:
'We are incredibly proud to be recognised as Wales's leading green business. The Wales Business Awards highlight the best of Welsh business, and to be counted among them is an honour.
'From the outset, our mission has been to support businesses and public sector organisations in making the transition to electric vehicles as seamless and impactful as possible. We believe sustainability should never be a compromise – it should be an advantage. This award reinforces that belief and reflects the hard work of our team, the strength of our partnerships, and the trust our clients have placed in us.
'As we look ahead, we remain committed to delivering innovative, data-driven solutions that not only reduce emissions but also create measurable value, economically, environmentally, and socially. We're proud to be a green business, through and through, and this recognition is a milestone in our journey to help drive Wales toward a net zero future.'
Gus Williams, Interim CEO at Chambers Wales South East, South West and Mid, said:
'Congratulations to FleetEV on winning the Green Business Award at this year's Wales Business Awards. In a highly competitive category filled with exceptional businesses, FleetEV stood out for their ambition, drive, rapid growth and success in a competitive market, but what really impressed us was their wider approach – the desire to have a positive impact with all their stakeholders, including their community work and support of local schools and sports, in particular.'

Call from Senedd for legal action over rail and NI funding
The former Plaid Cymru leader warned that a decision to reclassify an Oxford-to-Cambridge railway line as an 'England-and-Wales' project cost Wales £360m in consequential funding. Mr Price asked Welsh ministers: 'If the change was made – as it ostensibly was – without consultation or adequate reasoning, what legal hurdles would the Welsh Government face in bringing a case and what remedies might be available?' Julie James, who is counsel general, the Welsh Government's chief legal adviser, replied: 'I don't think that's something we want to particularly take to court.' Ms James pointed to an extra £445m for rail in Wales in last week's UK Government spending review, welcoming a 'step change' in the level of investment in the past year. But Mr Price suggested the decision to reclassify East West Rail after four years as an England-only project created a legitimate expectation in legal terms for budget planning. During counsel general questions in the Senedd on June 17, he criticised the 'completely unexplained reversal' on the project which has 'no direct nor indirect benefit to Wales'. The shadow justice secretary said: 'That seems to me to amount to a breach of procedural fairness, or potentially even cross the Wednesbury threshold of irrationality because it's a perverse decision – and that's why no real explanation has been proffered.' He urged Welsh ministers to issue a pre-legal action letter compelling the UK Government to disclose the reasoning behind the reclassification. Ms James, who could not explain the four-year delay, replied: 'I don't think that that would be a good use of the government's resources at all.' The Labour politician told the Senedd national planning on heavy rail is done on a England-and-Wales basis, so any scheme in England would proceed as such. Mr Price also suggested legal action over a £72m shortfall in funding from UK ministers to cover the increased cost of national insurance contributions in the Welsh public sector. He told Senedd members the UK Government's statement of funding policy states devolved administrations should suffer no detriment from UK policy decisions.

YesCymru take campaign letter to Downing Street
Directors Rob Hughes and Sam Murphy took the letter to 10 Downing Street as part of a national campaign for control of assets and revenues in Wales. The campaign has already garnered support from all 22 local authorities in Wales, the Senedd, and 75 per cent of the Welsh public. YesCymru argues that transferring control of these assets to Wales, as has already happened in Scotland, would support local economies and promote sustainable development. Mr Hughes said: "Wales has been overlooked and undervalued for far too long. "All we're asking for is fairness, and when that's denied, more and more people see independence as the only way forward. "This united support across Wales shows that YesCymru can bring people together behind a clear demand, and that real change is possible when voices across the country speak as one." Torfaen Council was the last Welsh local authority to back the transfer of Crown Estate powers, with a motion passed on June 10. The Crown Estate in Wales, worth over £850 million, currently sends its profits straight to the UK Treasury.
