Doubts cast on DfT's EV charger funding scheme
Auto Express
|August 31, 2022
"If the switch to electric is to be successful, we will need more chargepoints"
THE effectiveness of a Government scheme to improve public EV charging infrastructure has been questioned, following a lack of transparency and concerns over uptake from councils.
Department for Transport (DfT) chiefs announced a £20million investment last week in the Local EV Infrastructure (LEVI) pilot scheme, with nine councils - Barnet, Dorset, Durham, Kent, Midlands Connect, North Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire, Suffolk and Warrington - being awarded funding. The money is expected to go towards the installation of around 1,000 chargers.
