Over the last six months, one new public charger has been installed every 13 minutes, according to the report. The fastest rollout of chargers has been that of rapid and ultra-rapid chargers, which are powerful enough to recharge EVs in as little as 20 minutes. These chargers now make up nearly a quarter (24 percent) of all public charge points in the UK and stand in stark contrast to the declining number of petrol stations (around 8,300) across the country.

The report has been released just days after the government confirmed the ban on new petrol and diesel car sales by 2030. The government is now targeting 300,000 public chargers to be installed in the same year.

That seems pretty good. I wonder about how widely spread they are and what the optimum amount will be.
