Dozens more electric car chargers to be installed across Northumberland

A raft of new on-street electric vehicle chargers are set to be installed across Northumberland, adding to the county's already impressive tally.

With 198 devices across the area, there are currently more than 61 EV chargers per 100,000 residents in Northumberland - the highest of any area in the North East and in the top 20% for England as a whole, according to the Department for Transport.

But Northumberland County Council is not stopping there, after the installation of 225 more chargers over the next three years was approved by the council's cabinet.
