Details of the Event

Would you like to switch to an electric vehicle (EV) but are worried about costs or charging?

This is your opportunity to:

• Talk to experts and ask questions
• Test drive EVs with no sales pitches*
• Become aware of the electric vehicle infrastructure in our borough
• Find out about the available grants and tax benefits to help you switch to EVs or install chargepoints
• Help us shape the public EV chargepoint network in our borough

As part of our efforts to promote electric vehicles (EVs), we're helping to organise an awareness event at Winnersh Triangle Business Park on Friday, 11 July.

Guests will have the chance to test drive EVs and hear from experts like the Energy Saving Trust about the opportunities for grants and tax benefits that EVs and related infrastructure offer.

The event is mostly focused on Berkshire businesses but residents will be able to attend.

The event will be organised in partnership with Let's Experience Electric and our council counterparts in Reading, Bracknell Forest, Windsor and Maidenhead, Slough and West Berkshire.

It will support our Electric Vehicle Charging Strategy, which we approved earlier this year to help people make the switch by filling gaps in commercial provision, mostly with Government funding.

We'll announce more details, including times and how to take part in the day, as soon as they're confirmed.
