Department for Transport written question – answered at on 29 January 2024.
Stephen Hammond
Conservative, Wimbledon
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of extending the electric vehicle (a) chargepoint and (b) infrastructure grant to include the installation of cross-pavement cable gullies.
Anthony Browne
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)
As part of the Plan for Drivers, the Government announced its intention to expand the Electric Vehicle Chargepoint Grant as a trial to support the installation of safe cross-pavement solutions. This measure would apply across the UK and is intended to make EV ownership a more practical option for those without off-street parking.
The Government will closely monitor this trial, once implemented, to determine the success of the rollout and decide on future policy accordingly.
