Charge my Street is a new community benefit society that installs electric vehicle charging points for homes without off street parking. Most electric vehicle charging happens overnight so we will use car parks that are empty to charge up electric vehicles. We will: Install & operate charging points around Lancaster and Cumbria. Give people the tools to locally finance a community chargepoint. Encourage the take up of electric vehicles, allowing people to save money on fuel costs; Reduce air pollution and CO2 emissions. Explore storage of renewable energy in EV batteries, reducing the need for fossil fuels. Vision Charge my Street’s vision is for every home to be within 5 minutes’ walk of an EV Charging point. This will support the adoption of EVs and among residents of flats and terraced houses without their own driveways.
