Scotland’s 6,000 EV chargepoint target met two years earlier than expected
November 5, 2024
To further accelerate the charging infrastructure delivery, £6.3m has been awarded through the Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Fund to support 11 Local Authorities across Glasgow City region and Ayrshire region.
Great news. Always really pleased to see this sort of thing.
The current infrastructure is the main reason I can’t bring myself to switch to EV.
My wife has one and it’s great for travelling about locally. She can charge it for free at work as part of a green initiative to help hit environmental KPIs, so doesn’t really cost us anything to run.
It’s a no brainer for nearby trips.
Maybe it’s unfounded and I just don’t know enough about the state of our infrastructure, but when I looked into it when planning a trip to Glasgow last year at some point, but the things I read were such a mixed bag that I decided I wouldn’t chance it.
I know exactly where I am with my car.
That said, if we keep going like we are and end up with a completely reliable and easily accessible charging infrastructure, is happily change my car to EV too.
