Transport Committee: Supercharging the EV transition

Committee hears from witnesses

The Transport Committee will conduct oral evidence sessions examining the UK's transition to electric vehicles, focusing on accelerating EV adoption and related infrastructure challenges. This inquiry will scrutinise government progress on net-zero transport goals and explore barriers to faster EV market penetration.

The EV transition is critical to the UK's legally binding net-zero commitments and affects millions of drivers, automotive manufacturers, and the broader economy. The inquiry will inform policy on charging networks, vehicle affordability, industrial capacity, and employment in the automotive sector during a major economic shift.
