Municipal District: 17 June 2022

Question: Can the council confirm when it will roll out public EV charging points in the Municipal District?

Report: The Department of Transport published in April, an EV Charging Infrastructure Strategy 2022-2025 and welcomed submissions up to 31 May 2022. Responses and submissions received as part of the consultation are being considered in the development of the final Strategy for publication. Kildare County Council awaits the final Strategy document which will provide much needed detail on the capital funding needed. It is expected that any funding proposal contained in the document will require match funding by the Council which will be a challenge.
