To ask the Scottish Government how many public electric vehicle (EV) charging points were installed in the North East region between
1 June 2021 and 31 May 2022, broken down by Scottish Parliament constituency.
Transport Scotland holds information on charge points registered on the ChargePlace Scotland network only and by local authority boundary and not by parliamentary constituency.
Across the local authority boundary areas that this constituency covers there were a total of 28 public charge points commissioned onto the ChargePlace Scotland network between 01 June 2021 and 31 May 2022.
Our approach, which includes our new £60m fund, is designed to attract private investment and create the conditions for the public network to be largely financed and operated by the commercial sector.
