Energy regulator Ofgem will help install 3550 EV chargers across the UK as part of a £40 billion investment in greener energy.
Some 1800 new ultra-rapid chargers will be installed at motorway service areas and key trunk roads, while a further 1750 chargers will be added in towns and cities. The chargers will be delivered within the next two years by a joint initiative between Ofgem and electricity distribution companies.
The roll-out is part of a larger investment approved by Ofgem to the tune of around £40bn to grow the UK’s green-energy structure. The energy regulator approved a £300 million down-payment by electricity network operators to install the chargers.
