A Northern Ireland council has been warned it is facing “dire straits” over its lack of electric vehicle charging points.
Newry, Mourne and Down District Council could potentially seek to install over 180 electric vehicle charging points throughout the district following stark concerns raised in chambers.
He said: “This is a most extraordinary situation that the council now faces and indeed the whole of Northern Ireland if nothing is done and very soon. “This is the third largest district in Northern Ireland and it only has a total of 13 normal vehicle charging points. The council did a report in May 2022 and stated that it could not afford either the upper end of 180 charging points or the lower target of just 1% or 80 charging points across its parking spaces.
“At the moment we are facing dire straits. The fact is in the next 10 years we could see an end to petrol and diesel filling stations with the council having nothing else in place.
