With transport now responsible for 29 per cent of the UK’s carbon emissions and the countdown to the 2035 ICE ban underway, the conversation examines why retail parks and shopping destinations are poised to play a pivotal role in expanding the UK’s charging network.
Across the discussion, the trio break down the dual value creation emerging for landlords, from measurable ESG gains to increased asset value, footfall and tenant spend driven by EV drivers’ longer dwell times.
They’re candid about the complexities too, from long-term legal agreements to tenant consent and power availability, while offering a grounded perspective on what retailers should realistically expect when installing charging infrastructure.
Warren also brings in the driver’s view, sharing new customer research revealing that convenience, rapid charging and high-quality amenities are now essential factors shaping EV driver behaviour, and a clear opportunity for retail destinations.
Check out the full conversation to get practical insight into the future of EV charging in retail.
