Last week Nottingham City Council launched a CleanMobilEnergy pilot project which is part of an EU-funded project to integrate renewable energy sources, storage devices and electric vehicles. Three other cities in Northern Europe have also been selected for the demonstrator.
As part of his pledge to unlock unused pockets of land owned by the likes of Transport for London, the London Fire Brigade, the London Ambulance Service and the Metropolitan Police, the Mayor of London has released 24 sites around the capital, on which EV charging specialists Zest will provide and operate 39 rapid or ultra-rapid electric vehicle charging bays.
