Reason Key: Affect on communities;

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Notice of proposed decision first published: 04/09/2025

This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.

Reason for urgency:
The Charge Point Operator will not sign the contract until a decision on the price cap is made and included within the contract documentation. Notification of this requirement has just been received. The meeting to establish what the charge cap should be is scheduled for 5 September 2025.

Further delay of contract signature impacts on the delivery of EV charging infrastructure
in North Yorkshire. There is a hard delivery deadline of 31 March 2026 for delivery of chargers in Ryedale (which must be delivered and operational or we lose funding) and replacement chargers in the Hambleton area which hold a reputational risk if not delivered soon as they have been turned off since 2023.

Decision due: 24 Oct 2025 by Corporate Director of Environment

Lead member: Executive Member for Highways & Transportation

Lead director: Corporate Director of Environment
