UK plans to equip all new homes with electric car chargers

The UK government has decided to equip all new homes and businesses with chargers for electric cars from 2022. It is planned to equip about 145 thousand of such objects during the year.

Current situation

The country has already installed about 250 thousand such stations for recharging electric vehicles. They are installed in residential buildings, office premises, etc. The main goal of increasing the number of such facilities is to stimulate the local population to purchase eco-friendly means of transportation.

The plans of the state for the near future:

• completely stop selling cars with internal combustion engines by 2030;
• organize the infrastructure for the comfortable use of electric transport (the budget is about $660 million).

All these measures are aimed at improving the environmental situation in the country.
