2025 Electric Vehicle Chargepoint Installation Consultation

What is the West Sussex chargepoint network?

West Sussex County Council, Adur District Council, Worthing Borough Council, Arun District Council, Crawley Borough Council, Horsham District Council, Chichester District Council and Mid Sussex District Council have signed a contract with Connected Kerb, one of the country’s leading providers of electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions. The contract will see chargepoints installed across the county at zero cost to the councils.

We are proposing chargepoints in your area

The future is electric. In 2030, a ban on the sales of new petrol and diesel vehicles comes into force.

According to zap-map (opens in new window) research, in 2024 there were 381,970 new fully electric cars sold, representing 19.6% of all new cars registered that year. And, more fully electric cars were sold in 2024 than any other year, showing a 21% increase compared to 2023.

This highlights the importance of having enough affordable, reliable and hassle-free charging infrastructure for the many, not the few.

Connected Kerb has already started to install the network, with many chargepoints already in operation across the county. The next phase of activity will involve installing some active chargepoints alongside underground wiring. This will allow further sockets to be added in future as demand increases.

We’re not proposing to change any of the parking arrangements at the moment, so other cars will still be able to park as before, although we hope people will be considerate & allow EV drivers to charge. Any future change to parking restrictions would go through the normal consultation process.

We would like your feedback

We’d like to hear your views and comments. Your feedback is vital to help us build a charging network that benefits everybody.

The outcome of the survey will be published here at a later date.

To view the proposed locations or suggest one for future installation, visit the Connected Kerb website (opens in new window).

We are specifically asking for feedback from people over the age of 15 years.
