Document summary

This research investigates the regulatory, market, infrastructure and technological aspects that may
form barriers for disabled drivers to charge plug-in electric vehicles. The findings in this report were drawn from desk research, expert interviews, and data analysis. Motability would like to understand what is needed to solve the already identified issues with the charging points so that disabled people can benefit, including which stakeholders (government and market) would need to be involved, whether there are international examples the UK can learn from, and which technologies and actions should be focussed on.
