“Region 5” consisting of Tipperary, Carlow, Kilkenny, Wexford and Waterford City and County Councils are seeking public input to inform the development of a regional EV Strategy. The goal of the strategy is to address the challenges and opportunities in deploying EV charging infrastructure in the South-East region.

Public consultation opens on May 1st and runs until 4pm on May 30th 2025. This consultation invites residents, stakeholders, and the general public to share their views and input on the future of electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure in their areas.

By developing a comprehensive network of strategically located charging stations, the strategy is intended to support the growing number of EVs on our roads, ensuring that all areas are adequately served and help meet our climate action targets.

The Regional and Local EV Charging Network Plan published for consultation by ZEVI (Zero Emission Vehicles Ireland) in 2024 sets out minimum charging capacity requirements for local authorities per geographical area. En-route charging along major highways and travel routes are being supported separately by Transport Infrastructure Ireland.

As part of this regional consultation, stakeholders are asked to consider two key types of local charging infrastructure when providing their inputs:

  • Destination charging which involves installing charging stations at popular destinations such as shopping centres, hotels, and tourist attractions.
  • Neighbourhood charging focuses on providing charging options within residential areas, making it easy for EV users to charge their vehicles convenient to their residence.

Your feedback will be instrumental in developing a comprehensive EV charging infrastructure strategy that meets the needs of our communities and facilitates sustainable transport.
The questionnaire is accessible at the following web address (www.southeastevstrategy.com) from May 1st until 4pm on May 30th 2025.
