Written question asked by Janet Daby (Labour) on Friday, 14 April 2023, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Tuesday, 18 April 2023. It was answered by Jesse Norman (Conservative) on Thursday, 20 April 2023 on behalf of the Department for Transport.
Electric Vehicles: Charging Points
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate he has made of the number of public charging points for electric vehicles due to be installed in (a) Lewisham East constituency and (b) the London Borough of Lewisham in each reporting year until 2028.
- Answer
-
The Government has not set targets for chargepoint provision per region or local area because the exact number and type of chargepoints will be highly dependent on local circumstances, future charging behaviour and the future development of electric vehicle technology. Local authorities have a key role to play as they are best placed to consider local needs. We will require all local transport authorities in England to develop their own chargepoint strategies, subject to consultation.
To date, the borough of Lewisham has been awarded £196,780 to deliver 53 chargepoints through the On Street Residential Chargepoint Scheme.
