London homeowners are being encouraged to turn their driveways into charging spaces for electric vehicles.
An electric vehicle charging point (worth £1,500) will be installed free of charge thanks to a partnership between ParkatmyHouse.com, energy company SSE, Chargemaster and Source London.
Homeowners can then rent out their driveways to EV drivers who book online at ParkatmyHouse.com.
This means for the first time electric vehicle drivers will be able to reserve charge points in advance.
At present, electric car drivers cannot book charge point spaces in public places in London.
Chargemaster, in partnership with SSE, expects to install 200 charge points over the coming months, adding to the 800 already in place as part of TfL’s Source London scheme.
