Brent Council is testing sidewalk EV charging lanes funded by a $169,000 government grant, aiming to help residents without driveways—especially blue-badge holders—charge safely without tripping hazards. The trial tackles a key barrier: public charging carries 20% VAT, while home charging is only 5%, making EVs harder to afford. After six months, they’ll decide whether to expand, and after a year, whether to roll it out borough-wide—offering a smarter, more inclusive path to electric mobility.
