London Mayor unveils new charging strategy towards Net Zero 2030

While there is still a long road ahead for London on its electrification journey, the UK capital is leading the way when it comes to charging infrastructure. That was the message from the London Mayor, Sadiq Khan, speaking earlier today at the Evening Standard’s Plug It In Summit.

Mr Khan said: “[There are] over 11,000 charge points in London, of which more than 800 are rapid and ultra-rapid. Of the 800 rapid charge points in London, around half have been delivered by Transport for London. This is a third of the UK’s total, and a 170 percent increase compared to 2019.”
