EDF rolls out 250 electric car charging bays

By Yan Yan on Monday, 15th October 2007

EVForget the big smelly petrol pumps, why not plug into a small trim electric charger?

To promote the use of electric vehicles (EVs), EDF Energy and Elektromotive are rolling out 250 recharging bays (like the one pictured here) across the UK, by the end of March next year. It’s something of a boost from the paltry 2 charging points currently available (in London).

Sheffield, Islington, Camden and Lambeth councils have all stuck their hands up, with presumably more to follow. More info here.
