DfT - Funding for on-street chargepoints doubled to help charge up electric vehicle revolution
Transport Secretary Grant Shapps,
We want to make electric vehicles the new norm, and ensuring drivers have convenient places to charge is key to that. By doubling funding again for chargepoints on streets where people live and opening up data we are helping drivers easily locate and use affordable, reliable chargepoints whether at home or on the road.
· funding for chargepoints on residential streets doubled again to ensure postcode plays no part in how easy it is to use an electric vehicle.
· real-time information could also be made available, helping cut waiting times by showing which chargepoints are currently being used.
· in future open data on public chargepoints would allow for information to be added to sat navs and travel apps
