Set up alertsFrequently asked questions
Do EV charging points need planning permission?
Wall-mounted home chargers up to 0.2m³ are usually permitted development. Public charging hubs on roadsides, in car parks or at commercial premises typically need full planning permission, especially where new structures or significant ground works are involved.
What is SuDS in a planning application?
Sustainable Drainage Systems — features that mimic natural water management like swales, permeable paving, ponds and rain gardens. Since 2024 most major developments in England must include SuDS, usually secured by planning condition.
