Revisions

Due to a drafting error, a correction has been made to the commentary on this page regarding the number of chargepoints allocated under the On-Street Residential Chargepoint Scheme (ORCS) and the value of these grants. In one sentence, commentary incorrectly references data relating to the previous 3 months instead of the whole lifetime of the scheme. This error is limited to the commentary on this page. The underlying data and published tables are unaffected.

The affected sentence has been amended as follows: “Of the councils that have already completed installations, 27 have had further funding awarded to install a further 4,522 (revised upwards from 1,608) charging devices with a grant value of £11.8 million (revised upwards from £4.6 million)”.
