What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Cambridgeshire County Council and Peterborough City Council are moving forward with a joint procurement process to install electric vehicle (EV) chargers across the region. The combined authority secured £5.4 million from the Government’s local electric vehicle infrastructure (LEVI) fund for this purpose. The initiative aims to install more than 5,500 charge points, with the remaining units funded through private investment. Peterborough City Council accepted £1,075,770 of the LEVI funding and awarded a 15-year contract to Believ, which will deliver 1,058 charge points in the city.

The funding is intended to support the region’s long-term goal of providing charging points for residents lacking driveways or off-street parking.
