Rented Housing: Charging Points

Asked by Julia BuckleyLabourDepartment for TransportTabled Answered 26 November 2024UIN 14750

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of granting a presumptive right to install electric vehicle chargers at their own cost to people living in rented accommodation.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

The Government already provides support for people living in rented accommodation to install chargepoints, through its Electric Vehicle Chargepoint Grant. This provides up to £350 toward the costs of purchasing and installing an electric vehicle chargepoint. We will continue to review whether further steps are needed.
