Details
This strategy sets out our vision and action plan for the rollout of electric vehicle charging infrastructure in the UK, ahead of the phase out dates. We intend:
- to end the sale of new petrol and diesel petrol and diesel vehicles by 2030
- for all new cars and vans to be fully zero emission at the tailpipe by 2035
Our strategy was informed by:
- engagement carried out in 2021 with transport and energy stakeholders and local authorities
- Public electric vehicle charging infrastructure: drivers without access to off-street parking, research conducted on behalf of the Department for Transport by Britain Thinks
- Response to the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) market study into UK electric vehicle charging
