Green Transport

Your Co-op Flexible Benefits offers Businesses three different Green Transport schemes. EVs, e-Mopeds and Halfords and Tredz Cycle to Work scheme.

Why Green Transport for your business?

Green Transportation schemes for businesses work through employee Salary Sacrifice; this creates significant Tax and National Insurance savings, resulting in a discounted price for their EV, E-Moped or push Bike.

Halfords and Tredz Cycle to Work

By offering a cycle-to-work scheme, Employees can cut their commuting costs, promote a healthy lifestyle, and reduce their carbon footprints. This a great opportunity to further support your Employees and achieve CSR or sustainability targets, by collectively reducing carbon emissions.

Easy to set up, this cost-free scheme can save employees up to £420 on the cost of a brand-new bike and accessories.

To take advantage of this saving, a salary sacrifice is required, whereby employees agree to a reduction from their gross salary to cover the cost of the benefit - whilst enjoying saving on tax and National insurance.

e-Moped from Silence

Zero-emission, money-saving commutes with a fully electric Moped can transform how businesses achieve their emission targets and retain talent. Unlike our other Green transport schemes, Employees can purchase an E-Moped directly or via a loan through our partnership with The Co-op Credit Union, meaning this isn't a salary sacrifice scheme, and you will also receive a 5% cashback.

Key benefits of this green transport scheme include:
  • Running cost is approximately 1p per mile,
  • 35-90-mile range, depending on battery size, ideal for city/town commutes,
  • A fully removable battery that charges from a standard UK plug socket,
  • Receive 5% cashback. 
  • Silence Bikes come with a 2-year warranty and the batteries have a 3-year warranty.
The light and agile E-Moped prioritises affordability and grants Employees a potentially quicker, zero-emission and low-cost commute to work.
