At EV Charging Company, we’re incredibly proud to be based in Stockport, which has recently been named the UK’s EV hotspot. According to a recent report by One Home, Stockport (SK postcode area) boasts the highest number of registered pure electric cars in the UK—a staggering 97,856 vehicles! This is a significant milestone for our town and a testament to the local commitment to achieving net-zero targets.
EV Deserts and The Need for Nationwide Expansion
While Stockport is leading the charge (literally), the One Home report highlights a pressing concern: the rise of “EV deserts” across other areas of the UK. These are regions where the infrastructure and support for electric vehicle ownership are severely lacking, making it difficult for people to make the switch to cleaner, greener transport.
As advocates for sustainable travel, we support One Home’s call for the Chancellor to reconsider policies that could hinder EV adoption, such as removing incentives that make owning an electric vehicle more accessible. We believe that with the right support, more areas across the UK can replicate Stockport’s success in driving EV uptake and reducing carbon emissions.
