Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many rapid electric charging points have been funded by the Government and installed in England in the (a) last six months and (b) last year.
The Government has directly funded the installation of 81 rapid electric charge points within the last 12 months through its Go Ultra Low Cities and Ultra Low Emission Taxi Infrastructure schemes. Work is continuing and by 2020 these schemes together aim to deliver around 600 rapid chargepoints across the UK. This is in addition to the 900 rapid chargepoints which are already installed - one of the biggest networks in Europe.
The Go Ultra Low and Taxi infrastructure cities awarded funding by the Department for Transport are London, Milton Keynes, Bristol, Nottingham, the North East Combined Authority, Dundee, Oxford, York, Coventry, Wolverhampton, West Yorkshire Combined Authority, Slough, Cambridge and Birmingham.
Of the 81 rapid chargepoints installed in the last 12 months, two have been installed in Dundee and 79 in London. Many more rapids will be installed across the other cities over the next year.
As of 23 January 2018, records on the Transport for London website showed the following rapid chargepoint installation information in the table below:
