flag UK to allow pavement EV charging without permits, boosting access and affordability for renters and leaseholders.

flag A UK government proposal to allow pavement EV charging without planning permission aims to expand access for renters and leaseholders, reducing costs and improving safety. flag The plan, part of broader efforts to boost EV adoption, would eliminate individual approvals for cross-pavement charging and support home charging as the most economical option. flag This follows a 2025 rule change enabling driveway chargers without permits, while concerns remain over a proposed pay-per-mile tax on EVs, which could deter 52% of buyers. flag The UK now has 1.75 million EVs, with rising sales, and officials stress the reforms will make electric vehicles fairer, easier, and cheaper to own.
