Electric vehicle drivers of the future need to have confidence in chargepoint infrastructure to make the move from petrol or diesel to electric. Their failure to make the switch risks undermining UK national Net Zero goals. To ensure that drivers have the confidence to make that switch, chargepoint infrastructure needs to be deployed in a planned and strategic fashion at every level. Karen Platt, EV Liaison at EA Technology, outlines the reasons why having an understanding of the electricity network will be key to achieving the successful roll out of EV charge points.
