The Electric Streets of Britain campaign supports the 40% of households without off-street parking make the switch to electric. Working with charge point operators and local councils we aim to accelerate the installation of on-street residential charging right across the UK.
To do this we need your help. Whether you drive an electric vehicle today or would consider one in future, we want to hear from you. By completing this simple form, you can highlight the requirement for residential charging on your street. Using this data, we will build a nationwide map of where current and future demand exists. We will share this data with councils to help them make informed investment decisions.
Vauxhall is partnering with supermarket giant, Tesco, to provide new Vauxhall electric vehicle customers with one year’s free charging credit at stores across the UK.
Tesco stores are found within a 10-minute drive for over 70% of the UK population, allowing greater ease and convenience for electric vehicle drivers across the UK.
While the charge points are accessible for all electric vehicle drivers, new Vauxhall customers who purchase an electric Vauxhall car or van direct from a Vauxhall retailer or through our online store will be able to benefit from one year’s worth of free charging credit when visiting Tesco. *
As part of the partnership all 2,700 charging bays across Tesco stores will be updated with a Vauxhall & Tesco co-branded livery.
The sale of new petrol and diesel cars, and vans, is set to end in the UK from 2035. This transition requires a charging network that is reliable and accessible to motorists across the country. The ability to charge at home is one of the key factors determining whether motorists make the switch to electric. We surveyed all UK councils to find out how prepared they are for this transition. The key findings are detailed below. By completing our simple survey you can help us work collaboratively with local councils and charge point operators to accelerate the adoption of this vital infrastructure.
