question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the costs of the recommendation by the National Infrastructure Commission that the most convenient and cost-effective way of addressing range anxiety of electric vehicle owners is to locate ultra-rapid charging points in motorway service areas; and whether they intend to provide funding for such charging points in the near future.
tabling member printed	Baroness Randerson
uin	HL10680
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/10/2018 answer text <p>No such cost assessment has been made by Government. National Grid has made its own assessment of the location and costs of providing this capacity at Motorway Services Areas (MSAs). The provision of high powered charging at MSAs enables Electric Vehicle drivers to make longer journeys and addresses fears of range anxiety, helping to remove a barrier to the uptake of electric vehicles. In July 2018, in the Road to Zero strategy, we announced our commitment to run pilots, working closely with Highways England, to increase electrical capacity at up to three MSAs. These pilots will look to understand the nature of the market failure at these locations, and whether a mixture of smart charging, storage, and onsite generation, alongside potentially an upgraded grid connection, can provide a cost effective solution to providing this capacity. The Automated and Electric Vehicles Act provides powers to require provision of chargepoints at MSAs and large fuel retailers should the market not deliver sufficient capacity.</p><p> </p><p>The National Infrastructure Commission (NIC) was established to provide independent, expert advice and to set out an ambitious long-term plan for UK infrastructure. The Government is considering the NIC’s recommendations. The NIC’s framework document sets out that the Government will endeavour to respond within 6-12 months of publication.</p> answering member printed Baroness Sugg grouped question UIN HL10681 question first answered 29/10/2018 16:45:23 answering member 4584 label Biography information for Baroness Sugg
