ECC - Essex Electric Vehicle Charge Point Strategy

Public Consultation open until Sunday, 30 July 2023

The Essex Electric Vehicle Charge Point Strategy sets out how Essex County Council will work with local authority partners and the private sector to enable the delivery of changing points in key locations to maximise use – delivering the “The Right Charger in the Right Place”.  

Key stats -  

  • There is potential for 50,000 EVs in Essex by 2025, rising to 220,000 by 2030 
  • There are currently 300 registered public charge points in the county. It is predicted we will need a minimum of 1,500 by 2025, rising to 6,000 by 2030 
  • The projected increase in uptake of EVs could reduce car and van CO2 emissions in Essex by around 70% by 2040. 

To support the development of the strategy, it has now reached a stage at which we would welcome views to help refine it further.  The explanatory document with the consultation questions is at https://www.essexhighways.org/uploads/downloads/safer-greener-healthier/essex-electric-vehicle-charge-point-strategy.pdf

The six-week public consultation is open until Sunday, 30 July 2023.
