Worcestershire County Council is currently preparing its new Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy. We are looking for your views to assist on the draft strategy.
This first Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure (EVCI) Strategy for Worcestershire, sets out how the County Council and its partners intend to support the transition to electric vehicles and help to coordinate the roll out of accessible charge points across the County. The primary focus of this strategy will be on delivering electric chargers for communities and charging solutions for those specifically without dedicated off-street parking at home through the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) Fund.
The LEVI fund is a Government fund supporting local authorities in England to work with the charge point industry to improve rollout and commercialisation of public charge points for residents that don’t have off-street parking.

The consultation will run from 9th July until 24th September 2024. The final strategy is expected to be published later this year.

After the engagement exercise has concluded, all comments will be reviewed and duly considered. Where appropriate, the draft Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy will be amended and following adoption, published on our website in winter 2024.
