More EV chargepoints for Luton Council

Luton Council is set to receive electric vehicle (EV) chargepoints across all six of its residential car parks through operator Believ.

Believ will roll out seven 22kW chargepoints this autumn, which will boost Luton’s charging network, support the UK’s commitment to net zero, and provide charging for residents without driveways or access to EV charging at home.

Luton Council chose Believ as their operator due to their convenient driver payment options, and will provide additional chargeoints which can be activated when utilisation requires further capacity, bringing the total number of new chargepoints up to 24.

Councillor Javed Hussain, portfolio holder responsible for Sustainable Development and Highways at Luton Council, said: “We were impressed with Believ’s response to their tender. This initiative is a key part of our commitment to sustainability and our goal of achieving net zero carbon emissions. By providing accessible and reliable charging solutions for residents, we are supporting more sustainable travel by ensuring that more people can make the transition to electric vehicles.
