All in a bid to ease the transition to EVs and encourage more drivers to make the switch.
Amidst the excitement surrounding new charging innovations, the question remains: are options like wireless charging viable in the UK’s future?
Exploring and delving into the potential of EV charging is an exciting journey, with various models promising to transform how we power our vehicles. While challenges such as efficiency, standardisation, and infrastructure installation remain, recent developments suggest that the future of EV charging is revolutionary, but it’s not a quick turnaround.
How far are we in the EV charging journey?
We now have over 55,000 charging points across 31,445 locations in the UK, another significant increase of 46% year-on-year. But for the nation to sustain the phase-out of internal combustion engines by 2035, we need nearly 200,000 more charging points at the very least—a staggering 363% increase from where we are now.
