A new study suggests that kerbside electric vehicle chargers should be regulated and prioritized like traffic lights to accelerate the adoption of electric cars. Researchers argue that without clear management, the proliferation of chargers could lead to congestion and inefficiency, slowing down the transition to cleaner vehicles. The findings highlight the need for coordinated planning to ensure chargers are accessible and functional for drivers. The proposal aims to streamline charging infrastructure as part of broader efforts to support the growth of electric mobility.
