EV charging provision as part of new build planning permission?

Former Community Member over 5 years ago

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?

Part of the reason was that huge political pressure was applied to not build nuclear because the proponents could not understand the difference between nuclear power and nuclear weapons.

AFAIK, it is necessary to process the fuel for a bomb in a reactor, so the real reason for building power stations after WWII was to support the weapons programme. The fact that the heat could be turned into electricity was a bonus. Now, of course, we just need the power.
