Blink Charging (BLNK) has announced its wholly owned subsidiary, Blink Charging UK, has been selected by Wakefield Council to install, own, and operate 54 on-street and 130 off-street EV chargers throughout the district, with a focus on areas where access to charging has been limited. Backed by a GBP 282,000 investment through the UK government’s Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure funding secured by the West Yorkshire Combined Authority, the collaboration will accelerate the realization of Wakefield’s commitment towards net-zero emissions and expand public EV charging access to its residents, aiming to facilitate fully electric transportation by 2030. The 184 new chargers will be installed within the next two years.
