The Spread Eagle Pub near Southwell and the Hockerton Housing Project (HHP) are the proud new owners of Electric Vehicle chargers. Funded by government grants, Sustainable Hockerton and Carbon Zero Renewables, the charger at the pub is token-operated, while the HHP charger will be used by the five households at the project.

New government funds for electric vehicles chargers will launch in the autumn.
