Venson Automotive Solutions’ Operations Director Alison Bell, says companies who are looking to adopt cleaner fleets are now facing a ‘postcode lottery’ for the cost of charging an electric vehicle. According to figures obtained by British Gas, 21 councils across England and Wales allow motorists to top up their batteries for free, yet in other areas drivers are charged up to £4 per kilowatt hour (kWh). Public charge points for electric vehicles grew by 37% last year, yet the cost of charging and payment methods are far from cohesive across the country, said Bell.
