Connected Kerb has announced plans to install 190,000 public on-street electric vehicle chargers by 2030. 

The £1.9 billion investment aims to revolutionise access to public electric vehicle charging and support mass-market charging for workplaces and fleets.

Connected Kerb has secured new partnerships for 10,000 public on-street chargers across the UK in 2021, with the majority to be deployed across West Sussex and Kent. 

According the company, the West Sussex tender is believed to be the UK’s largest ever deployment by a local authority. 

Deals for a further 30,000 charge points are expected conclude next year. 

Chris Pateman-Jones, Chief Executive Officer of Connected Kerb, said: “Knowing you can arrive at virtually any location, at any time, in any vehicle and cheaply charge your battery without inconvenience or faff is the reality we have to deliver to create an EV society.

“Our rollout of public chargers – one of the most ambitious the UK has ever seen – encapsulates that future, helping individuals and businesses to confidently make the switch to electric, reducing their carbon footprint and cutting air pollution.”
