EV charging provision as part of new build planning permission?

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?

  • Or to look at it another way, the average annual mileage for a car in the UK appears to be around 7600 miles. At say roughly 3 miles per kWh that would be just over 2500kWh a year or just under 7kWh a day.


    So a 7.2kW (32A) charge point could do an average 'top up' in about an hour - or if things could be spread evenly over, for instance, the 7 hours of E7 off-peak times, we'd be looking at an additional load on average of 1kW per car.
