Electric Vehicle Charging

Since declaring our Climate Emergency, West Devon Borough Council has been committed to working with our partners to reduce carbon emissions across the Borough.

We are working hard across the Borough to improve the network of Electric Vehicle (EV) charging points available to both residents and visitors alike. Charging points are already available in two of the largest towns in West Devon and more are planned for installation in 2022-23.
