Today the government has announced an 8-week consultation covering the delivery of the 2030 ban on sales of purely petrol and diesel cars and the #ZEV mandate. There are also announcements of new measures aimed at speeding up the deployment of charging infrastructure. Melanie Shufflebotham Co-founder and COO commented: "Zapmap welcomes the publication of this consultation. Having strong policies and certainty is essential to give the broad industry across vehicles, charging and associated services confidence to continue to invest and it also provides a clear message to UK drivers that the transition is happening now. The public charging infrastructure has been rolling out at pace over the last two years, and supports EV drivers on journey, destination and near home charging. Continued investment in the rollout - enabled by a strong and clear #ZEV mandate and 2030 message - combined with a focus on excellent consumer experience is critical to give the next 5 million drivers confidence to make the switch. In addition, the new measures announced today around giving more flexibility for planning and simplifying grid connections is good news for the industry and will help to accelerate the rollout of charging infrastructue which is in turn good news for EV drivers." ▶️ Transport & Energy article https://lnkd.in/ea7X_Yhg #evcharging #roadto2030 #evinfrastructure
