Electric Vehicles: Charging Points

Asked by Mr Clive BettsLabourDepartment for TransportTabled Answered 9 February 2026UIN 109510

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she plans to mandate public electric car charging providers to display the price of electricity clearly at the service station.

Answered by Keir Mather

The Public Charge Point Regulations 2023 require charge point operators to clearly display the maximum price a consumer could be charged during a charging session, either on the charge point or through a separate device. The regulations stipulate that consumers do not have to enter a contract with the charge point operator to view the information.
