The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what progress she has made in implementing nationwide E-HGV charging infrastructure.

Answered by Keir Mather

Through the Zero Emission HGV and Infrastructure Demonstrator (ZEHID) programme, Government has already provided £120 million of funding to kickstart the deployment of zero emission HGV infrastructure. This is funding 73 planned infrastructure locations, representing over 360 chargers. The Government is further supporting the installation of charging equipment at depots through the £30 million Depot Charging Scheme.

We will set out further detail in a zero emission HGV and Coach Infrastructure Strategy in due course.
