The UK’s novel rapid charging fund (RCF) is a staggering \u00a3950m fund to future-proof electrical capacity at motorway and major A road service areas in order to prepare the network for a future of 100% zero emissions vehicles (ZEV).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The operators of motorway and major A road service areas will be eligible to apply for the rapid charging fund, the details of which will be released\u00a0in the near future.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In November 2020, the UK government announced a <\/span>ten-point\u00a0plan<\/span><\/a>\u00a0for a green industrial revolution,\u00a0where they committed to putting an end to the sale of new petrol and diesel cars and vans by 2030. From this year, all new vehicles must have substantial zero emission capabilities, and from 2035, all new vehicles must be 100% zero emission.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nTen-point\u00a0plan for a green industrial revolution<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n
