Devon Electric Vehicle Charging Consultation

RECEIVED FROM DEVON COUNTY COUNCIL:

The Strategy

The Devon Electric Vehicle Charging Strategy aims to help all residents and visitors overcome barriers to EV adoption and increase access to suitable infrastructure. A key barrier to the uptake of EVs is the availability of suitable charging infrastructure. The EV strategy provides a summary of EVs in Devon, assesses the policy context, forecasts EV uptake and chargepoint demand to 2030 and sets out recommendations for how Devon County Council will intervene.

The strategy will form part of a suite of documents that will feed into the emerging Local Transport Plan 4. The strategy will also be instrumental in leveraging funding from Government for new electric charging infrastructure. You can view a summary of the strategy or the full document at: devon.cc/ev-strategy-consultation
