Improve EV charging infrastructure
With the sale of EVs now surpassing the sale of diesel cars, the infrastructure of public charging points vastly needs improved. Having 2 charging stations in services and slow charging points in public car parks is simply not enough.
This becomes a bigger problem on longer journeys where a number of vehicles have to queue to use charging points because there isn't enough of them to keep up with demand. Also, when away from home the availability of public charging points is sparse and not fast charging stations either. This makes travelling anywhere other than work and home a needlessly long day. If the government wants more EVs then it needs to support or provide better charging infrastructure.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about existing charging infrastructure for electric vehicles, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, we could accept a petition calling on the Government to increase funding for the installation of electric vehicle chargers, or to publish a strategy with targets for increasing the number of electric vehicle chargers.
