Re: Electric Vehicles
'Remainder of the UK
While there is not a universal, or consistent approach to chargepoint provision, many local authorities have developed their own guidance which is often built on the London Plan model.
Tip: The approach of mandating proportions of active chargepoints can cause challenges with which bays should receive them, particularly on sites where bays would normally be allocated. For guidance we recommend you speak to our Built Environment team.
What EV charging requirements can we expect in the future?
Future National Policy
The government’s Road to Zero strategy expressed their intention that, in due course, a chargepoint is installed in every home with parking. They are currently consulting on what this would mean for the development industry and are considering their requirement. Options include mandating either active or passive chargepoints in each development, whilst appropriate proportions and the best holistic approach to the challenges are being investigated, with consultations are ongoing.'
ps the above is quoted from a government, I think it was, website, not my own comments.
