Strategy Consultation: Help us improve Electric Vehicle Charging in Stoke-on-Trent

We want to make sure everyone in Stoke-on-Trent who drives an electric car can charge it easily, wherever they are. We know people have different needs, and we want to hear from you.

If you can't charge your electric car at home or work, there are three main types of public charging points:

  • Residential Charging (for long stays/overnight, 6+ hours): These are usually in areas where people live, especially if they don't have off-street parking.
  • Destination Charging (for medium stays, 2+ hours): You'll often find these in public car parks. They charge your car faster than residential chargers and are good for places where you park for a few hours, like when you're shopping.
  • In-Transit Charging (Rapid, less than 1 hour): These super-fast chargers are usually on main roads or at motorway service stations, perfect for when you're on a longer journey and need to top up quickly.

When we decide where to put charging stations, we think about a few things:

  • Demand: Where do people most want to charge their electric cars?
  • Electricity: Is there enough power in that area to support charging?
  • Parking: Are there good parking spots available for charging stations?
