Governments in every region of the world are pouring money into environmentally friendly initiatives, one of which is the development of electric vehicles.
In order to install charge stations for electric vehicles, the government of the United Kingdom is planning to spend £56 million.
Drivers of electric vehicles across the country, from Cumbria to West Sussex, will be able to take advantage of the continued expansion of charging stations for their vehicles as they become available.
Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure
This funding will expand the current Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) pilot, boost the existing On-Street Residential Chargepoint Scheme (ORCS), and help councils secure devoted resources to developing in-house knowledge and capability to integrate charge point initiatives and deliver a more comprehensive and credible network of charging stations for drivers.
The Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) pilot is currently underway.
The government has already allocated over two billion pounds worth of funding to encourage the transition to zero-emission vehicles, which will contribute to the acceleration of the decarbonization of the entire transportation sector in the UK.
Whether you run out of gas or electricity, the outcome is the same: your vehicle will come to a stop.
In the event that you are driving a gas-powered vehicle, a roadside assistance truck will typically be able to bring you a can of gas or tow you to the closest gas station.
In a similar manner, a tow to the nearest charging station is all that is required for an electric vehicle.
