Electric vehicles

Here's information on the things we're doing relating to electric vehicles in Redditch Borough - and some government and industry advice too.

 

Charging points

Here's an online map of the charging points in the borough and beyond.

We will look to work with partners to incorporate electric vehicle chargers and taxi chargers as part of the upcoming Town Centre regeneration works.

Replacement due for Worcestershire's first rapid chargers

We're investigating options for the rapid chargers at Abbey Stadium and Greenlands Business Centre.

You might recall that these were the county council's first ever rapid chargers in Worcestershire! Now the original contract, between Worcestershire County Council and BP Chargemaster, is coming to an end.

The EV charging points in 2016, before the Abbey Stadium was painted green & run by Rubicon Leisure!

EV Chargers for council dwellings

If you are a council tenant, you maybe considering installing an EV Charge to your home, we advise you NOT to start work on an installation without getting permission from us as your social landlord. Find out about getting permission if you are a council tenant here.

No driveway to charge on?

We are planning for charging provision in our car parks that can assist people that don't have their own drives to charge electric cars overnight.

Join the WhatsApp group

There is an electric vehicle users WhatsApp group for North Worcestershire, administered by Midlands Net Zero Hub who are working with Worcestershire Local Enterprise Partnership.

If you want to take part in the group contact Alex.Pearson@nottinghamcity.gov.uk.
