The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, has pledged that every Londoner will be no more than a mile from an electric car charge point by 2015.
Speaking at the Copenhagen climate summit in December, the Mayor revealed detailed plans for the development of a comprehensive infrastructure of 25,000 electric car charge points across the capital.
The charge point network will be supported by a one-stop website and membership scheme for electric vehicle drivers, to be launched this year.
Mr Johnson said: 'A golden era of clean, green electric motoring is upon us and London is well ahead of cities around the globe in preparing the right conditions for this.'
