10% of parking bays with Electric Vehicle charging for car parks over 100 spaces

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

To drive the adoption of electric vehicles and help the UK hit its carbon targets the government and private business must embrace the EV market and support owners of EV's by improving the charging infrastructure through legislation for car parks over 100 spaces to have 10% of bays electrified.
Increasing this network will also increase green investment in the UK from charge networks and energy suppliers.
Jobs will be created to support the larger networks of chargers.
