The Electric Vehicle Charging Strategy submitted by North East Lincolnshire Council’s delivery partner, Equans, has been formally approved by Cabinet.
The approved strategy can be found at www.nelincs.gov.uk/streets-travel-and-parking/electric-vehicles-ev.
The EV strategy will help achieve the borough’s target of reaching carbon net zero by 2050. The strategy forecasts how many chargepoints are needed across the borough and how these will be delivered to meet public demand.
Councillor Stewart Swinburn, Portfolio Holder for Environment and Transport, said “We are one step closer in making North East Lincolnshire a cleaner and greener environment. Making chargepoints easily accessible for people in the borough will encourage people to switch to an electric vehicle.”
