Electric Vehicles

The Crown Estate Paving Commission (CEPC) recognises the growing importance of electric vehicles (EVs) and supports their responsible integration into the estate. Our approach is guided by a balance between sustainability, practicality, and the preservation of the area’s historic character.

Our Approach:

  • Utilise electric vehicles for CEPC operations where practical, in line with our commitment to environmental responsibility.
  • Encourage residents to use off-street charging solutions, such as garages, underground parking, or mews, and to choose vehicles compatible with those facilities.
  • Monitor developments in EV technology and infrastructure to inform future decisions.
  • Undertake practical future-proofing measures, such as installing additional ducting during road or pavement reconstruction projects.

This Approach Reflects Considerations Including:

  • The anticipated continued rise in EV ownership and demand.
  • The importance of avoiding charging cables across roads, pavements, or CEPC-managed structures, to preserve safety and visual standards.
  • The potential heritage and infrastructure implications of introducing large-scale charging facilities.
  • The rapid pace of technological change, which may affect long-term infrastructure planning.
Local charging points can be viewed online.
