Health Secretary Wes Streeting dealt with calls last night to ditch the 'unreasonable' Net Zero plan to amaze all UK ambulances within 15 years.

Health chiefs have to reveal just how much the brand-new ambulances will cost, but main figures seen by the Mail on Sunday reveal it will cost ₤ 100million simply to upgrade the grid and electrical infrastructure required for charging points.

'Time, preparation and expense are entering into purchasing electrical cars and developing battery chargers - many of which will never ever be set up - instead of improving reaction times.


'Even more worrying is the obstacle of upgrading the grid in time to satisfy the extra demand.


'This is yet another case of climate policy racing ahead of innovation with shocking results for clients and taxpayers.'


England's first electric ambulance started operating in the West Midlands in 2020. Another eight will be provided this year to be utilized in metropolitan areas such as Birmingham.


West Midlands Ambulance Service said: 'Seventy percent of our location is generally rural and this continues to be the greatest consider our transfer to electrical - having the range to run in areas where cars can do 200 miles-plus in a shift.'


East of England Ambulance Service has actually been trialling 3 electric ambulances considering that 2023, but has actually not used them to transfer travelers. Another eight will be provided to the service this year.


The Department of Health said: 'New electrical ambulances will save the NHS ₤ 59million a year to reinvest in frontline care.'


The NHS said: 'It is right we look for sustainable alternatives when they enhance patient care and conserve the taxpayer cash. Electric ambulances will not impact action times, [and] are cutting emissions, maintenance and fuel costs.'
