Despite the increasing capability of electric vehicles, their wide spread global use has been restricted due to range limitations.

Electric Vehicle charging infrastructure within Europe is poised for rapid growth by 2012 as technologies and electricity optimisation are harmonised. Government leadership and initiatives, including the recent announcement of 20M for low-carbon infrastructure by the UK government, have shown the great importance of these vehicles. Implementing these initiatives and charging infrastructures effectively, along with the latest in recharging technology advancements, will make the future transition to low-carbon vehicles a reality.
