Office for Zero Emission Vehicles

Seeking views on how to restore the 2030 phase out date for new purely petrol and diesel cars and make the transition to zero emission vehicles a success.

Dedicated chargepoint funding will support people in making the switch from petrol and diesel cars to electric vehicles.

Plug-in Taxi Grant provides funding of £6,000 per electric taxi vehicle and is extended until April 2025.

New measures will mean EV owners benefit from easier and more convenient access to chargepoints.

80% of new cars and 70% of new vans sold in Great Britain will now be zero emission by 2030, increasing to 100% by 2035.

EV chargepoint pilot scheme at motorway service areas to support government’s vision of transition to electric vehicles.

The Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) is a team working across government to support the transition to zero emission vehicles (ZEVs). We are providing support for the take-up of plug in vehicles, as well as funding to support chargepoint infrastructure across the UK. This will contribute to economic growth and will help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution on our roads.

OZEV is part of the Department for Transport and the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero.
