Driveway or no driveway, EV drivers deserve access to affordable charging.
Following the latest Budget announcements, our CEO Chris Pateman-Jones has shared his views on what needs to happen next to make electric driving fairer for everyone.
While the ÂŁ100m investment to support near-home public charging is a positive step, it must be backed by long-term action that tackles the underlying costs that make public charging more expensive than charging at home.
To deliver meaningful change for drivers, we need a clear plan from Government, Ofgem and the Department for Transport that addresses the root causes of the affordability gap. The Government must not delay. Connected Kerb stands ready to support efforts to ensure these measures deliver meaningful, lasting benefits and greater fairness for EV drivers who cannot charge at home.
At Connected Kerb, we believe access to affordable EV charging shouldn't depend on whether you have a driveway. Ending the driveway divide is essential to making the transition to electric vehicles fair, accessible and achievable for all.‌
