Transport minister, Lilian Greenwood said the Labour government is ‘making it cheaper and easier for people to own an electric vehicle,’ to encourage people to buy an electric vehicle.
She added: ‘We’re working with Ofgem to make sure that where people want to install electric vehicle chargers, they can get the electricity supply that they need.’
The Department for Transport said a £650m fund was being made available for the Electric Car Grant, which is due to get into gear from Wednesday.
