Formerly Head of Vehicle Technology for Leyland-DAF Trucks, Dr Holmes has advised the Department of the Environment on fuel economy in commercial transport and has worked with the US Department of Energy.

He will be presenting practical techniques to improve fuel usage in commercial transport and fleet operations.

The seminar has been organised by the Bolton Environmental Technology Initiative with the support of Bolton Environment Forum and the Energy Efficiency Office for the region.
