New homes built in the U.K. will soon be required to have charge points for electric vehicles, according to the government’s Road to Zero report released Monday.
“It is our intention that all new homes, where appropriate, should have a charge point available,” it said. “We plan to consult as soon as possible on introducing a requirement for charge point infrastructure for new dwellings in England.”
