Members have a final chance to secure a free spot to the 'Charge Forward' event taking place in central London this Thursday. The free insights and networking event is being hosted by the BVRLA in conjunction with the Energy Savings Trust and Novuna Vehicle Solutions. It is designed to supercharge local authorities' understanding of EV charging infrastructure and how to acknowledge fleet needs.
More powers are being devolved and the responsibility to deliver effective EV charging plans is falling on teams at a local level. Understanding how to roll out plans that will work for all constituents, as well as businesses operating in the region, is critical.
The Charge Forward networking reception, taking place on 14 March in Southwark, London will outline what success looks like for EV charging. Industry experts will present and be on hand to answer any questions about how to get started, with attendees also able to connect with other local authority representatives to share ideas and discuss progress made to date.
The BVRLA will also be sharing the latest findings from its Fleet Friendly Charging Index. The Index shows how local authorities compare to each other when considering EV charging infrastructure strategies, as well as what fleet engagement is taking place and whether authorities are applying for external support.
Local authority representatives in attendance will gain a better understanding of the challenges relating to the roll out of EV charging, the value of partnerships in resolving these issues, and where they can obtain help when deploying charging in their local areas.
There are a limited number of tickets remaining for BVRLA members, if you are interested in attending, contact [email protected].
