EV charging provision as part of new build planning permission?

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
As per subject, I was asked this morning about the practicalities for EV provision by an electrician. Apparently, it has been stipulated as a condition of granting planning permission for some new build dwellings, so I asked for sight of this.


Whilst it is usual for the planning to seek comments from the water authority for sewage disposal, I doubt if the DNO has been consulted.


Has anyone else come across this?

    A cynic like me would observe that 100 amp services used to be the norm for new larger homes. A 100 amp service should be ample for an EV charger and normal household use.

    There have been many cases of former 100 amp services being downrated when meters are changed. I suspect that after receiving a large fee for "network improvements" that the DNO will simply re-instate the 100 amp fuse.
