never been a better time to invest in EV charging technology"},"content":{"rendered":"<h2>In this article, David Butters, E.ON Drive, explores the advantages for developers in installing EV charging technology, highlighting the financial and reputational benefits, and positioning early adopters as sustainable pioneers in the wake of the 2035 Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) ban<\/h2>\n<p>All new build homes in England now require EV charging points and demand for EV charger installation at new property developments is increasing.<\/p>\n<p>With numerous financial and reputational benefits available and the ramp up to the 2035 Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) ban starting, developers that make the move today<br \/>\nwill establish themselves as sustainable pioneers and be investing in vital infrastructure<br \/>\nthat will serve them well into the future.<\/p>\n<p>Installing EV charging technology at residential or commercial developments today has far-reaching benefits for a business and its customers in the future.<\/p>\n<h3>Developer requirements<\/h3>\n<p>With the introduction of the Part S regulation regarding infrastructure for the charging of<br \/>\nelectric vehicles in 2022, additional requirements were placed on developers to provide EV charging infrastructure for all new developments.<\/p>\n<p>In most cases, this is likely to take the form of actual charging infrastructure or in some<br \/>\ncases (typically where the cost of installing physical charge points would be prohibitive),<br \/>\nthis may mean installing cable routing to enable EV charging infrastructure to be installed in the future.<\/p>\n<p>For some developers, this may feel like an additional obligation and an unwanted hassle; however, installing EV charging technology is a significant opportunity for many developers.<\/p>\n<h3>25% of new vehicles being sold now come with a plug<\/h3>\n<p>The EV market continues to grow strongly for both battery electric vehicles (BEV) and plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV) as drivers and businesses move towards more sustainable modes of transport.<\/p>\n<p>As of April 2023, there were more than 1m EVs (BEV and PHEV) on the road \u2013 just over<br \/>\n3% of the total vehicle stock in the UK.<\/p>\n<p>25% of new vehicles being sold now come with a plug, meaning the proportion of total UK vehicles needing charging infrastructure is growing steadily, and the introduction of quotas for the sale of new vehicles coming into effect from 2024 (22% of cars sold in 2024 must be fully zero emission) means this growth will start to accelerate.<\/p>\n<p>To support this growth in charging needs, there is increasing regulation focused on ensuring there is sufficient volume and quality of public charging infrastructure available to<br \/>\nsupport drivers, including initiatives such as the LEVI (Low-Emission Vehicle Infrastructure)<br \/>\nFund, the Rapid Charging Fund and the Public Charge Point regulation.<\/p>\n<p>While there is significant investment in the public charging network, the majority of EV charging sessions in the UK (between two-thirds and four-fifths, depending on which report is used) are done at home and with drivers becoming increasingly knowledgeable about how to optimise the cost of charging, as well as becoming more conscious of how they\u2019re using energy, and the importance of sustainability, providing a high quality EV charging experience can be a differentiator for developers.<\/p>\n<h3>How can E.ON help<\/h3>\n<p>At E.ON, we believe that any one plugging their car into an EV charger is plugging into<br \/>\nan energy ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>With our extensive knowledge of, and back-ground in, the energy industry, plus our range of residential and business energy
