Description

The Government has recently announced that all new sales of conventional petrol and diesel light-duty vehicles must end by 2030, with hybrids also phased out by 2035. By this point, the car market will need to transition to all new sales being zero-carbon, we expect electric, vehicles (EVs). Moreover, in our advice on the Sixth Carbon Budget, the CCC emphasised that this transition must focus on fully electric battery-electric vehicles (BEVs), with only a minimal role for hybrids beyond 2030 as they often produce high levels of GHG emissions in real-world use.

Under the CCC's Balanced Net Zero Pathway scenario for the Sixth Carbon Budget, BEV sales ramp up steadily through the 2020s, reaching 97% of all new car sales by 2030. This leads to around 12.5 million BEV cars being on-the-road by 2030, rising to almost 25 million by 2035. This level of uptake will increase the demand for electricity across the road transport sector from below 1 TWh per year today to over 100 TWh by 2050. In order to deliver this power to their vehicles, all car users will need reliable and convenient access to charging infrastructure into which they can plug their cars.
