Making it easier to change to EV is part of the Climate Emergency Response Plan, which first promote active travel \u2013 walking cycling and wheeling \u2013 or public transport, followed by a transition to zero-emission vehicles, where car-travel is unavoidable.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The EV charging strategy sets out how CWaC and its partners will support the transition to EV within this framework by providing comprehensive, accessible and efficient charging infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Potential locations for charging EV include key destinations \u2013 such as Chester city-centre, supermarkets and restaurants, plus along routes across the wider borough, as well as at residents\u2019 homes. Delivering the level of charging infrastructure required to meet future demand will require close partnership working between CWaC and private operators.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The adoption of local EV charging infrastructure will support submissions to the Government\u2019s \u2018Local EV Infrastructure (LEVI) Fund\u2019 which is expected to be launched soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CWaC is seeking views on Electric Vehicle (EV) charging within the borough.
