New rules will see every home in the UK encouraged to become more economically friendly.
Motorists will be able to save more than £1,000 a year under the new proposals which aim to provide an incentive to implement new technology to go greener.
Last summer the UK Government put forward plans to simplify the process for homeowners wanting to install electric vehicle charging points on their driveways.
The move, which saw planning permission scrapped, got rid of previous rules which saw homeowners have to jump through several legal loopholes to install the technology to charge electric vehicles. Before the law stated that owners had to apply for “householder planning permission” to fit an EV charger on their own driveway.
But now homeowners no longer need permission if they wish to install a single wall-mounted or pedestal EV charger on their driveways.
The UK Government say they hope the move will encourage motorists who may “be hesitant about transitioning from petrol and diesel vehicles.”
