A major shake-up in the UK's electric vehicle (EV) charging landscape is set to take effect today, as new laws come into force that aim to make EV ownership more accessible and affordable for motorists. Under the changes, public charging points will be installed at a significantly reduced cost, with prices capped at £45 per point, a move that could see a significant increase in the number of charging stations available across the country. The new law is part of the government's efforts to encourage the adoption of electric vehicles and meet its target of banning new petrol and diesel car sales by 2030. With the UK's EV charging infrastructure currently lagging behind other European countries, the introduction of these new rules could be a crucial step towards making electric cars a more viable option for British drivers.
