Electric Vehicles: Charging Points

Asked by Joe MorrisLabourDepartment for TransportTabled Answered 3 November 2025UIN 85986

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many electric charging points have been established through Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure funding.

Answered by Keir Mather

In total, the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) Fund, alongside significant private investment, is expected to support the installation of at least 100,000 chargepoints across England.

The majority of LEVI projects have now been approved to go to delivery, the first contracts have been signed between local authorities and chargepoint operators, and the first projects have now started to install chargepoints. Data on chargepoints installed under LEVI will be available in due course. Installation rates will increase as more projects enter delivery, with installation expected to continue over the coming years.
