The Government’s current grant funding schemes support chargepoint infrastructure at homes, workplaces and on residential streets.

The £400m public-private Charging Infrastructure Investment Fund will see thousands more electric vehicle chargepoints installed across the UK. The Road to Zero strategy, published in July, includes new commitments to expand electric and low emission vehicle infrastructure significantly across the country.

We will be launching a consultation shortly on the proposal for chargepoints to be installed in all newly built homes in England, where appropriate, and we also want all new lampposts to include charging infrastructure.
