In the UK, there are currently around 7,500 publicly-accessible EV chargers available, with many more planned.

Paul Muir, Sunderland City Council’s Transportation Strategy Officer, told Automotive World, “I believe that the infrastructure is sufficient to cope with the current demand; however, as the number of electric vehicles on the road increases, provision will also need to be increased in line.”
