Portsmouth Scores £100k to Zap Up Electric Car Charging!
Portsmouth City Council has smashed it by landing £100,000 from the Office for Low Emission Vehicles. The cash boost will roll out 50 electric car charge points across residential areas where off-street parking is scarce.
Leading the Charge on Cleaner Streets
As one of the first councils to bag this funding, Portsmouth is setting the pace in making EV charging more accessible for residents without driveways. This move aims to kick-start a greener future, cutting emissions and easing the switch to electric.
Charge Points for the Parking-Poor
Most new charge points will pop up in streets with no off-street parking, solving a major headache for many EV owners struggling to plug in their cars overnight.
The council promises a speedy rollout, putting Portsmouth firmly in the fast lane towards cleaner, greener motoring.
