New regulations will ensure that prices across chargepoints are transparent and easy to compare and that a large proportion of new public chargepoints have contactless payment options.
Providers will also be required to open up their data, so drivers can easily find an available chargepoint that meets their needs.
This will open up data for apps, online maps and in-vehicle software making it easier for drivers to locate chargepoints, check their charging speeds and determine whether they are working and available for use.
