UK government allocates £10 million to enhance EV chargepoint network

The initiative aims to boost EV charging on major roads, utilizing renewable energy to address grid constraints

The UK government has announced £10 million in funding for new technology aimed at supporting the supply of electric vehicle (EV) chargepoints, allowing them to operate without relying heavily on large grid connections, or even off-grid entirely. This initiative is designed to accelerate the installation of EV chargepoints on England's motorways and major A-roads, making EVs more accessible as part of efforts to boost the country's charging infrastructure.
