UKERC Transport Evidence Compendium
A comprehensive synthesis of two decades of UK energy and mobility research, providing evidence to inform strategic transport decarbonisation policy.
In December 2021 the government published a new Approved Document S in the Building Regulations requiring EV charging infrastructure to be installed in most new housing in England. In order to achieve government’s target of 26.8 million pure battery EVs by 2035, it is expected that 145,000 EV chargers per year will be installed in new housing developments.
The STAPLE project is holding a commission to investigate the governance of EV charging in new housing developments in England. The commission process is a series of deliberative workshops bringing together different stakeholders to explore:
This inter-disciplinary project brings together expertise in transport studies, electricity network management, house-building and the spatial Planning system. The commission will consider the governance of all these different systems, taking account of the rules, norms and technologies involved. Many inter-linked issues are involved, for example:
