Drivers across the UK will soon enjoy discounts on dozens of new electric car models after the Transport Secretary announced a £650m grant scheme worth up to £3,750 per car on Tuesday.
Alongside measures that aim to address the financial barriers to electric vehicle ownership, ministers have also been working to improve the network of chargepoints across the country, with one added every 30 minutes.
Which area has the most electric vehicle charging points?
London has the highest number of electric charging devices per 100,000 people, with Hammersmith and Fulham leading the way with 1,444 per 100,000, followed by Westminster with 1,279 and the City of London with 756. Coventry has the fourth highest number of electric chargers perv 100,000 people with 695.
At the other end of the scale, Castle Point in Essex has the lowest number of charging points per 100,000, with just 17, while North East Derbyshire and Fenland in Cambridgeshire have 20 and Derry City and Strabane in Northern Ireland has 22.
AA president, Edmund King, has said the barriers of charging points also need to be overcome to give drivers the confidence to switch to electric vehicles.
Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander said with “over 82,000 public chargepoints now available across the UK” the Government has “built the infrastructure families need to make the switch with confidence”.
Last month, Future of Roads Minister, Lilian Greenwood, confirmed that government and industry are expected to install over 100,000 local chargepoints in the coming years, thanks to the existing government funding from the £381m Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) Fund.
At the end of June 2025, there were 82,369 electric vehicle charging points across the UK, across 40,479 charging locations. There were 76,507 charging devices in place as of 1 April.
Rapid charges, which offer significantly faster charging, and Ultra-rapid chargers – the fastest way to charge an electric vehicle, often found at motorway services or locations close to main routes – only make up around 20 per cent of total devices, but they account for around 60 per cent of the total capacity.
