The Council for the London Borough of Redbridge has announced it has partnered with ubitricity, one of the UK\u2019s leading charge point operators with a network of more than 7,000 public charge points, to install 310 new on-street charge points. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Through the partnership, ubitricity \u2013 a wholly owned subsidiary of Shell \u2013 will install and manage the public charging infrastructure. The charge points will charge at a speed of up to 5kW and each take just under two hours to install, minimising disruption to the public.
The new public charge points have been funded through the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) and ubitricity, which further develops the borough\u2019s EV infrastructure. The on-street charging points will give local people without the ability to charge on a private driveway increased confidence to make the switch to electric, knowing they can easily charge their EV using public infrastructure available across Redbridge. Installation of the first tranche of the 310 charge points is set to begin in September 2023.
\u201cWe want to make sure our borough is clean and green now and for future generations,\u201d said Cllr Jas Athwal, Leader of Redbridge Council. \u201cBy making it as easy as possible for our neighbours to make the switch to electric vehicles, with 310 new on-street charge points coming to Redbridge, together we can improve local air quality and reduce the impact of climate change.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
