Electric charging explained

Coventry is leading the way in green transport. As the birthplace of transport innovation, we’re building one of the UK’s most comprehensive electric vehicle (EV) charging networks outside of London — helping residents, businesses, and the environment and making it easier than ever to switch to electric.

EVs mean cleaner air, lower emissions, and reduced running costs. That’s why we’re investing in over 2,100 on-street charging spaces by the end of 2025 and becoming the UK’s first all-electric bus city.

Our work is part of a city-wide push to improve air quality, reduce carbon emissions, and power a cleaner future. Transport is key to tackling climate change, and Coventry is proud to lead the way with real action that benefits our communities and the planet.
