UK surpasses 50,000 EV charger milestone, says Zapmap

EV chargepoint mapping service Zapmap has confirmed that the UK has now surpassed the 50,000 chargepoint milestone.

With the UK having established a 300,000 chargepoint target by 2030, reaching the 50,000 milestone could be a major boost to the EV industry particularly after Rishi Sunak unveiled a flurry of delays to the EV sector last month.

Zapmap said that the 50,000th charging device, which was an ultra-rapid device, was installed at a service station in Weston-super-Mare and is operated by MFG EV Power.
