Conservatives pledge on electric car plugs | This is Money

Conservatives pledge on electric car plugs | This is Money: "While the pledge is unlikely to cost much at the moment as there are only a few thousand electric vehicles, it could become very expensive over the next decade.

Experts believe that by 2020 there could be about one million electric cars on the roads.

Over the next few years, major manufacturers such as Vauxhall, Renault and Toyota plan to introduce electric or plug-in hybrid cars into the UK.

This will not be a problem for car owners who can access a plug socket in their house from the road or their drive, but it could be a tremendous hurdle for thousands of City-dwelling flat owners."
