answer text <p>The Government has a number of schemes which can be accessed by EV drivers across the country, including in Gloucestershire. The Government is providing funding for schemes to support chargepoint infrastructure at homes and workplaces and on residential streets. The Government’s on street residential charging scheme offers grants to local authorities to help support this investment at local level. We want to encourage private sector investment to build and operate a self-sustaining public network that is affordable, reliable and accessible. In many cases, the market is best placed to identify the right locations for chargepoints and make improvements to the network and it is essential that viable commercial models are in place.</p><p> </p><p>We will continue to monitor whether any significant gaps in uptake or infrastructure provision emerge in the medium term. In the future we will consider whether there is a case for direct central government support in areas where there is a market failure, which may include areas outside the major conurbations.</p><p> </p><p>In August 2017, South Gloucestershire Council were awarded £4,790,910 under Government’s [£42m] Low Emission Bus Scheme, for the provision of 110 Biomethane low emissions buses and accompanying infrastructure. The purpose of the scheme is to help improve regional air quality in UK towns and cities.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p>

answer text <p>Figures on the total number of electric vehicle chargepoints are unavailable. Members of the public and businesses are able to install chargepoints without government support, and information on these are not routinely collected. Chargepoints that do receive government funding can be decommissioned or removed without notifying Government. The charging point platform Zap-map reports that, as at July 16<sup>th</sup>, there are 19,939 publicly available connectors in England, with the numbers in each region as follows:</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Region</p></td><td><p>Number of chargepoint connectors</p></td><td><p>Percentage within England</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>East Midlands</p></td><td><p>1,299</p></td><td><p>7%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>East of England</p></td><td><p>1,618</p></td><td><p>8%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Greater London</p></td><td><p>6,417</p></td><td><p>32%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>North East</p></td><td><p>1,045</p></td><td><p>5%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>North West</p></td><td><p>1,807</p></td><td><p>9%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>South East</p></td><td><p>3,239</p></td><td><p>16%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>South West</p></td><td><p>1,903</p></td><td><p>10%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>West Midlands</p></td><td><p>1,388</p></td><td><p>7%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Yorkshire and the Humber</p></td><td><p>1,223</p></td><td><p>6%</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p>

answer text <p>The Government has had a number of discussions with representatives of the oil sector about the provision of electric vehicle charge points at service stations and petrol forecourts. We are encouraging the private sector to invest in and operate a self-sustaining public network supported by the right policy framework. Only last week, the Prime Minister and the Secretary of State for Transport met with automotive industry leaders, where there was a discussion about having the right charging infrastructure in place and a number of new commitments about charging were made to make electric vehicles more convenient than ever to own. The Government’s view is that the market is often better placed to identify the right locations for chargepoints and it is essential that viable commercial models are in place to ensure continued maintenance and improvements to the network. As evidence of this, BP Chargemaster, the UK’s largest electric car charge point provider, announced last month that it will install 400 points capable of ultra-fast 150kW charging by 2021 – including 100 at 50 sites by the end of 2019.</p>

answer text <p>Government funding and leadership, alongside private investment has supported the installation of more than 20,000 public chargepoints, according to figures made available by the charging point information platform zap-map. This includes over 2,000 rapid chargepoints – one of the largest networks in Europe. Members of the public and businesses are able to install chargepoints without Government support, and information on these are not routinely collected</p><p> </p><p>Our grant schemes and the £400m public-private Charging Infrastructure Investment Fund will see thousands more electric vehicle chargepoints installed across the UK. The Road to Zero strategy published last year, includes new commitments to expand significantly electric and low emission vehicle infrastructure across the country.</p><p> </p> more like this
