      Funny that the green driven policy of limiting parking in front of houses in new estates caused by the guidelines of only 0.5 parking space per house will cause significant delay in transport electrification, which is by far more impactful to reducing CO2 emissions.

      The Private Wires Act is supposed to cover cables for EV charging crossing a pavement, but who knows how long that will be getting through the Daíl

      Expectation is legislation “soon”, then to work out how satisfy councils on a permitting it.

      Anything you put on a public path creates a „hazard“ to users of the public road under the 93 roads act. As such, someone will sue the hole off you (and they will). There is no policy or procedure a local authority can follow to allow you to install one.

      Even newer planning conditions still fail to condition these to be installed as part of a development even though every 4th car sold is an EV.

      When they are eventually allowed it’ll involve regular safety inspections, separate insurance indemnities etc. Legal system has this country ruined.

      EV changers are in lampposts all over the UK. Shocking that we’re not following suit.

      The Greens made a complete arse of EVs. Lots of money spent subisiding Teslas for wealthy people, we’re left with very little to show for it and large gaps in charging infrastructure. Aside from houses with no driveways, very few apartments can charge EVs and no-one in the government or councils seem to give a fuck other than a few halfhearted „pilot projects“.

      We live in an apartment in D8. No car (we cycle and use public transport everywhere) but one day we’d like a small electric car. Nowhere to charge it at present. Probably 100+ parking spaces here for about the same amount of apartments, zero plugs.

      My estate has communal parking, no front gardens or designated spots but I’ve seen a few homes with charger points built into the front of the house wall and the owners park as much a they can infront of their own house so the charger reaches their car, so if you live in a house in one of these sort of estates it’s doable, obviouslynot in an apartment
