We support this and would seek assurance that the EV infrastructure provider are selected and the charging points are equipped to meet the needs of all types of EVs to ensure this is accessible and flexible.

EV infrastructure to be included in all new development. Single charge points in new dwellings is not enough. Many households have more than one vehicle. In years to come, they will all be electric and will require charging.

Electric cars are so expensive, less people are going to be purchase them. They are not particularly 'green' due to the batteries, which entails the extraction for earth of natural minerals, and will require need replacing. I hear of people having to drive around trying to find a charging point that is actually working. Petrol and diesel vehicles will not become exstinct!

Inclusion of fast charge point infrastructure in car parks is a must to remove barriers to EV adoption. Policies to include in new developments are required too.

We object to Draft Policy Direction 32 on the basis that electric vehicle charging points are already required under Building Regulations Approved Document S for all new dwellings and commercial developments. Therefore, there is no need for the duplication of Building Regulations within planning policy, as supported by NPPF paragraph 16f which requires planning policies to serve a clear purpose.
We note that the draft policy direction makes reference to the Councils’ strategy to provide electric vehicle charging points within its own car parks. We consider that this is a matter to be dealt with outside of the planning policy arena and should therefore not form part of the SWLP.

Bellway object to draft Policy Direction 32, providing that it does not seek to go beyond the Building Regulations.
As the Council is seeking to go beyond these requirements in emerging policy, then suitable evidence is required to be provided to ensure it is justified in line with paragraph 36 of the NPPF.
Turley, Sustainability and ESG, have undertaken a review of Policy Direction 32 and state that in addition to setting out a strategy for EV charging infrastructure within Council buildings and public realm the Policy notes the need for robust policies for EV structure in new development.
Bellway supports the installation of EV infrastructure and notes that Part S of the Building Regulations11 sets out requirements for EV charging in new development, with an EV charger required for every house with dedicated parking, as well as non-residential development requirements.
The policy notes the greatest challenge is installing EV charging infrastructure in existing areas, in particular this will include urban areas with terrace housing, where the lack of charging infrastructure and low cost charging is a barrier to uptake of EVs.
Turley have agreed in their review that any provision beyond the Building Regulations will need to be justified, evidenced and considered as part of a viability assessment.

Electric vehicle infrastructure and in particular carpooling schemes or similar can be a useful tool for reducing social isolation and increasing access to services or employment particularly in rural areas where households might only have access to one or no cars. If possible, the local plan should consider whether opportunities exist to deliver this facility within new settlements urban extensions or larger infill sites.

Electric vehicle charging is already addressed within Warwick’s Parking Standards SPD and Stratford’s Part R – Air Quality SPD. Moreover, Policy Direction 31 already refers to charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. It is unclear as to why the Councils consider that a standalone Part 1 policy is required which duplicates existing adopted planning guidance and the preceding policy direction, and thus it is considered that this policy direction is repetitive and can be deleted. The Councils could consider referring to this in a more detailed Part 2 policy.

9.3.
Electric vehicle charging is addressed within Warwick’s Parking Standards SPD and Stratford’s Part R – Air Quality SPD. Policy Direction 31 also refers to charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. It is unclear if the Plan requires a freestanding EV policy, or if this is not more readily addressed through Policy Direction 31.
