Could/should the OLEV EV charging point grant be scrapped?

Could/should the OLEV EV charging point grant be scrapped?


With the potential financial situation the country is facing could/should the OLEV EV charging point grant be scrapped? Given the level of debt the government is racking up it seems an appropriate time to say that actually people buying cars should cover the associated costs themselves without a subsidy.


If the grants are scrapped I think it would be a huge incentive for more electricians to become involved in installing EV charging points.

  • I am a believer in Small Government, so I am not in favour of any scheme which promotes a particular course of action. However, I do accept that it is a perfectly reasonable political aim to encourage the take up of EVs.


    Hasn't this all been done before with PVs and the FIT?
