For areas without off-street parking, funding is made available to Local Authorities to install charging infrastructure, through Government’s On Street Residential Charging Scheme. In addition, under the Government’s Go Ultra Low City Scheme, £22.9m has been allocated to support the installation of infrastructure – this is currently being procured and installed in eight UK cities. Following open competitions, 10 Local authorities have also benefited from £14m of Government funding to install taxi chargepoints.</p><p> </p><p>At the Autumn Budget in 2017, the Chancellor announced a new £400m electric vehicle Charging Infrastructure Investment Fund. This funding will support the efforts of local authorities across the UK to establish recharging infrastructure. More detail on how the Fund will be administered will be published in due course. We are also taking powers through the Automated and Electric Vehicle Bill to ensure the roll-out of electric vehicle infrastructure at key locations such as motorway service areas and large fuel stations.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 03/05/2018 15:56:31 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
