There are a number of electric vehicle (EV) charging points across Enfield. You can find details of these by visiting websites such as Zap Map.

Our commitment
The council is committed to providing sufficient charging sockets for electric vehicles on public highways and public car parks in the coming years.
This will be a rolling programme with delivery reliant on funding, so the number provided each year will vary.
We will be providing charging points where there is the greatest need. This includes areas covered by the extended Ultra-Low Emission Zone, where there are more people living without off-street parking and where chargers support other carbon reduction interventions such as low traffic neighbourhoods.
Lamp column chargers are currently being rolled out across the borough. These are a simple and cost-effective way to increase our number of charging points, which can be fitted into existing streetlights where these are next to the kerb. For more information about this, see the Electric Vehicle Charging project page.
Why go electric
About 90% of car trips in London are less than 7 miles. This means that the use of EVs is preferable to help cut emissions in London.
The cost of running an EV is relatively lower than running a petrol or diesel vehicle.
EVs have no tailpipe emissions of CO2 and other harmful pollutants. By switching to an EV, you will be helping to reduce health issues caused by CO2 from vehicles.
Grants are still available from central government to encourage people to purchase an EV.
The Energy Saving Trust provide more information on the benefits of electric vehicles.
If you want a healthy and sustainable way to travel, you can also walk, cycle and use public transport, particularly for short trips.
