This year the UK Government confirmed its plan to ban new petrol and diesel cars by 2030 and continue to invest in electric vehicles as the future of travel. Additionally, the Republic of Ireland government have committed to a target of 1 million electric vehicles on roads by 2030. With these deadlines now being only 9 years away, there is a push for new infrastructure to provide the support needed for electric vehicles.
