Free chargepoint advice for councils

UK Power Networks is offering free advice about electric vehicle charging to local authorities in its operating area of London, the East of England and South East England. The company says its staff can advise councils on meeting demand for public charge points in the most efficient way. “If a single charge point, planned for a location without an electricity cable running directly underneath, was moved to a location with existing infrastructure, the saving could be up to £20,000,” it said.
