Electric vehicle charging points installed at 18 car parks in Pembrokeshire

The charging points are a result of a joint venture between Pembrokeshire County Council and Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority.

All locations offer ‘Fast’ electric vehicle charging and two of them (Tenby Multi Storey Car Park and Haverfordwest County Hall Car Park) offer both ‘Fast’ and ‘Rapid’ charging.

The charge-posts are part of the Dragon Charging regional network.

Pembrokeshire Council’s Cabinet Member for Infrastructure, Cllr Phil Baker said there had already been a substantial increase in the use of the publicly available electric car charge infrastructure across the County.

He said: “As a Council we are committed to being net zero by 2030 and electric vehicles form one of the strands of this work in relation to de-carbonisation of transport,”

“By the end of 2021, electric vehicle charging points will be rolled out to a further 11 locations in Pembrokeshire as part of the joint project between Pembrokeshire County Council and Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority,” he said.

“We hope that our contribution toward a comprehensive network of electric vehicle charging will enable consumers to confidently switch from combustion to electric cars and vans.”

Cllr Paul Harries, Chairman of Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority added: “These charging points will help promote sustainable transport and enable the organisations and individuals to make more use of electric vehicles and aid the overall response to the climate change emergency.”

Electric vehicles are a part of the Welsh Government’s strategy to facilitate the transition to net-zero. Their strategy says we are at the early stages of a transport revolution that will see the phasing out of petrol and diesel cars and vans and is essential if we are to meet the aspiration to end Wales’ contribution to climate change.
