REUTERS/Nick Carey Acquire Licensing RightsLONDON, Oct 23 (Reuters) - British electric truck maker Tevva has "re-engaged" with a number of possible merger partners following ElectraMeccanica's (SOLO.O) decision earlier this month to cancel their planned deal and said on Monday it has a number of trucks in production. The two companies announced their planned merger in August, giving Tevva access to U.S. production and targeting revenue of up to $1.5 billion in 2028, but Mesa, Arizona-based ElectraMeccanica terminated the agreement citing "failures by Tevva to disclose ... material information." In a statement it also said it had a number of fully electric 7.5 tonne trucks in production to hand over to customers. A few have begun bankruptcy proceedings, including Swedish-based electric truck maker Volta Trucks which filed for bankruptcy last week.

Read moreLONDON, June 22 (Reuters) - Prince William said Britain was a better place thanks to the "Windrush generation", as the nation on Thursday celebrated the 75th anniversary of the arrival of the first post-World War Two Caribbean migrants. Many of the events will also acknowledge the prejudices the Windrush arrivals and their descendents have had to overcome. In 2018, Britain apologised for its "appalling" handling of the Windrush generation, after a tightening of immigration policy meant thousands were denied basic rights despite having lived in Britain for decades, and dozens were wrongly deported. His father has commissioned 10 portraits of 10 members of the Windrush generation as part of the celebrations.

In 2018, the Windrush Compensation Scheme was set up to provide compensation to victims of the scandal. The Home Office has not yet responded to CNN’s request for comment on these cases and its wider handling of the Windrush Compensation Scheme. The Windrush Compensation Scheme is an extension of a hostile environment for Black and Brown people.”For some people, any compensation awarded is too late. “We were told compensation was on the way so we could get a carer for my dad – but it was too late,” Abiona told CNN. He is now making a Windrush compensation claim through the Home Office to save up for a headstone for his father’s grave.

☆ Canada's B.C. province sets high emissions bar for new LNG projects

[1/2] The entrance to Shell's LNG Canada project site is shown in Kitimat in northwestern British Columbia on April 12, 2014. While the tougher regulation will not impact the huge Shell-led (SHEL.L) LNG Canada project already under construction, a proposed export terminal adjoining the small-scale Tilbury LNG facility and the early-stage Ksi Lisims LNG project in northern B.C will fall under the new rule. The province will start exporting 14 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) when LNG Canada enters service in 2025. "That (net-zero requirement) is a very high bar and a high hurdle to pass," said Mark Zacharias, executive director of think-tank Clean Energy Canada, adding the new framework rounds out B.C. 's new regulations also include an oil and gas emissions cap and plans to accelerate the electrification of the economy.
