In response to the government’s vision for the rapid chargepoint network in England, Randolph Brazier, Head of Innovation & Development at Energy Networks Association said:
“We welcome the government’s vision for a rapid chargepoint network in England. The electricity network companies have a great track record in supporting the roll-out of electric vehicles so far. To deliver the government’s vision we will need to implement the recommendations of the EV Taskforce alongside a regulatory framework which supports innovation, flexibility and strategic investment. We, alongside our members, are working with motorway service areas to come up with whole system solutions that works for customers."
