Electric Vehicles

Westminster City Council has over 1000 on-street electric vehicle (EV) charge points across the City, ranging from 3kW to 50kW, with more being added to provide greater coverage for the growing number of EV owners in the City.

Transport for London's Environmental Plan sets out how it will support the Mayor's ambition of a carbon neutral London by 2030 while also addressing how to manage the risk to the transport network as the climate and ecological crisis continues.

To support a more sustainable property development sector, Transport for London has also made the TfL Sustainable Development Framework (SDF) available as an open-source tool for delivering best-in-class sustainable developments.
