Interesting changes for EV charging. Not many but some significant ones:
- all new chargers above 8kw must have a contactless payment pad
- all operators must offer a 3rd party payment option such as Elli or Bonnet ie subscription discount service
- reports of service status of a machine must be 99% and above, and a statement to the Secretary of State for Transport yearly
I think a lot of this is pretty good. Having to install apps has to go. So mandating card payment option is good. Next would be not being able to discriminate on price between card and app. Don’t see that here. Like the visibly of price and status.
