Abstract: This paper presents a literary review of the charging infrastructure together with the electric vehicle uptake in the UK. The literature review covers the UK Governments legal binding commitments, current policies for improving EV uptake and accelerating the charging infrastructure in the UK. Industry position and government papers were reviewed which highlight the key challenges faced. The current charging infrastructure in the UK is presented together with future requirement for charging points. Modelling the future number of chargepoints is highly uncertain. The technological and commercial climate for charging infrastructure is developing at a rapid pace and it is not clear what will be the optimal mix between the high and low powered chargers.
