Residents across the High Peak and Derbyshire interested in having an electric vehicle charging point installed on the street near their home are being asked to register their interest.
Earlier this month, Derbyshire County Council agreed to install up to 500 charge points connected to the electricity supply for street lights in areas of the county where residents have no off-road parking.
Now residents are being asked to come forward to help identify where charge points could be installed by registering their interest online at www.derbyshire.gov.uk/evsurvey
The initiative is part of the county council’s wider plan to install more vehicle charging points across Derbyshire, working with operators and partners such as district, borough, town and parish councils to fit charge points in public car parks.
The county council is in the process of appointing a supplier to provide and operate the on-street charging points. It is intended that the supplier would fully finance and manage the installation, operation and maintenance of the charge point at no cost to the council.
