Local Authorities: Leading in challenging times

The EV Café Team

Our October 2024 webinar highlights the importance of local councils and public sector bodies in driving the transition to electric vehicles. Chris Rimmer from CENEX discusses how the LEVI fund is accelerating the installation of EV infrastructure, focusing on support for local authorities. He emphasises challenges like power access, infrastructure, and strategic collaboration. Guests, including Mike Cutts who joined Paul Kirby live from Millbrook Proving Ground, also explore how local authorities can scale charging networks while balancing commercial and private needs. A key takeaway is the critical role of partnerships between councils, businesses, and government to streamline EV adoption.
