Electric Vehicles: Charging Points

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 20 October 2025 to Question 78696 on Electric Vehicles: Charging Points, whether her Department has set a timetable for the completion of the installation of those chargepoints.

Answered by Keir Mather

Local authorities are at different stages with their Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) projects and chargepoint deployment more widely. The first LEVI projects have now signed contracts and some are starting to install chargepoints. Local authorities are responsible for determining appropriate timetables for their projects in line with their chargepoint strategies. They are required to update the Department quarterly on project progress, including completed chargepoint installations. Installation rates will increase as more projects enter delivery and continue over the next few years.
