Set up a national Electric Vehicle (EV) charging network in England

Closed 40 signatures

What the petition asks

Fund and establish a national Electric Vehicle (EV) charging network with affordable rates.
The current private sector infrastructure for EV charging is minimal, poorly maintained and expensive to charge.

Chargeplace Scotland shows it is possible.

EV use is increasing but there are not sufficient rapid chargers available to meet demand.

In order to meet admissions targets and reduce the use of petrol and diesel vehicles on the road EV charging stations are key.
