Electric car chargers to be required in new homes in England
The Hill ^ | 11/22/2021 | MYCHAEL SCHNELL

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Monday announced that all new homes and buildings in England will be required to have electric car chargers installed beginning next year.

The legislation, which Johnson announced at the annual Confederation of British Industry (CBI) conference, will install up to 145,000 extra charging points throughout Europe every year, according to a statement from the prime minister’s office.

The requirement will also apply to buildings undergoing renovation. Facilities that are left with more than 10 parking spaces will be compelled to install electric vehicle charging points.

I don’t think there are all that many new homes being built there, unless they tear something else down first. Except for the rural areas.

An electric car charger in the garage of someone I know malfunctioned and started a fire that burned down his house. He barely escaped with his life.

They should do ok when the sun is shining, but otherwise they might as well get used to walking. But what the heck, they voted for this...they can now live it.

Everything the left and greenies are doing is hurting the poor and the middle class. All these rules and mandates will make cars and houses unaffordable for all except the rich.

Sad, but true. There doesn’t seem to be anywhere people can go to just live their lives in peace and freedom, and have the ability to better their lives for themselves and their families. We’re being squashed like bugs.

No worries. When not in use, the charger will recharge itself. It’s sort of like this, but on a larger scale.

Ain’t science grand?

They can hardly meet “current” demands. The powers that be get more stoopider by the minute.
