On 13 December 2018, the Department for Transport (DfT) released its 2017 charge point analysis. This covers experimental statistics on the usage of domestic, local authority rapid and public sector fast charge points, funded by the Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV).
This Chart of the week combines three statistical releases to show the total number of charging events and total median average energy supplied (MWh) per hour of the day for 2017.

E-mobility and low carbon
Last month the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) published its final report on its market study into electric vehicle (EV) charging in the UK. It raised concerns about charge point deployment at motorways, remote locations and on-street locations, stating that access to suitable charging can be a “postcode lottery” and...
E-mobility and low carbon
The Transport Decarbonisation Plan published yesterday sets out new targets to cut emissions from the sea, roads and railways, joining an earlier commitment to phase out polluting cars and vans by 2035. In assessing the progress so far, we take a look at data released last week from the Society of Motor...
Low carbon generation
Interest in private wire arrangements has grown in recent years, with the benefits of network and policy cost avoidance becoming a key incentive for generators to look at this development approach. In this Chart of the Week, we look at the expected evolution of cost avoidance over the next five...
E-mobility and low carbon
The UK government has set measures to “effectively” ban the sale of all new internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles from 2035 onwards to support the UK’s target to achieve net zero by 2050. It is expected that electric vehicles (EVs) will replace petrol and diesel as the primary mode of...
Commercial and market outlook
Our popular weekly publications are an opportunity for our experts to detail a wide range of issues in a succinct and visually engaging manner.

E-mobility and low carbon
Total new sales in the UK car market appear to be stagnating with figures down by 2.5% on September 2018. However, despite contending with the disruptive impacts of Brexit, legacy confusion over fuel type following the Dieselgate Scandal, and uncertainty in the fleet space over future company car tax, electric...
E-mobility and low carbon
The latest data from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT), released on 5 September 2019, sees battery electric vehicles (BEVs) record their largest ever monthly share of new car registrations in August 2019. Over the year to date, we have seen BEV registrations rise 93% - posed to overtake...
E-mobility and low carbon
The Energy Systems Catapult recently published a study, by low carbon energy consultancy Element Energy, Vehicle to Grid Britain. The study examines the long-term values available to users of vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology. V2G allows EV batteries to export energy to the networks, whether that be the home or business it is connected...
