To ask the Scottish Government whether it monitors any variance in the level of electric vehicle charging point tariffs between areas and, if so, whether it will share the data that it collects, and, if it does not carry out such monitoring, whether it will consider doing so.
Scottish Ministers do not currently monitor any variance in the level of electric vehicle charge point tariffs. The charge point owner is responsible for the setting of any tariffs on their electric vehicle charge points. The Scottish Government do not have a position on the levels of tariffs that the hosts can set, however, we expect these to be in line with the recovery of costs.
