Decision details

To outline the proposed approach to and setting a Charge Point Operator (CPO) price cap per kilowatt hour for North Yorkshire Council's public electric vehicle chargepoint network over the next 12 months.

The Corporate Director, in consultation with the Executive Member for Highways and Transportation approved the proposed annual price cap for the standard public charging network tariff (7-22kWh) at the rate recommended.

The recommended price cap amount has been proposed to ensure costs are covered whilst enabling the CPO to recover their investment. It also ensures that the charge to the consumer is kept as low as possible, in line with current energy prices and market rates. A competitive pricing structure will support the continued uptake of EVs while contributing to North Yorkshire’s wider carbon reduction goals.
