## Resource

The UK government is slashing home EV charging costs to just two pence per mile, making daily commutes like London to Birmingham a mere £2.50. New rules simplify charger installation, especially in covered car parks, while Ofgem ensures fair public pricing to stop landlords from overcharging tenants. Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander vows to make EVs accessible to all, regardless of parking situation, with expanded grants for families, renters, and small businesses. Businesses are eager to switch, citing cost savings and emissions cuts — this push could turbocharge the UK’s EV revolution and make electric driving affordable for millions.
