How networks can overcome the EV challenge
Decarbonising the transport sector is a key element of UK government policy for meeting climate change targets. Against this backdrop, the market for electric vehicles (EVs) is growing rapidly and EVs are currently leading the way in decarbonising road transport, at least for domestic and light commercial use. However, as the uptake of EVs is increasing, the impact of charging requirements on the electricity networks is becoming an issue. Might this, coupled with the existing regulation in this area, seriously hamper the adoption of EVs?
