Electric vehicles are booming in popularity in Scotland, with a study revealing that uptake of EV’s in Scotland could be up to 16% higher than UK government statistics suggest. Scotland have set ambitious EV goals, set out their Vision for Scotland's Public Electric Vehicle charging network, with source powering these goals into reality.

Source’s EV Charging Locations Across Scotland

Scotland’s Evolving EV Landscape

Scotland has set a net-zero greenhouse gas emissions target by 2045, 5 years ahead of the UK-wide target demonstrating its commitment to tackling climate change. Providing an efficient public EV charging network across Scotland is a major driver in achieving this goal.

At Source, we’re helping to power that transition. Our ultra-rapid chargers make charging quick and hassle-free, supported by grid-friendly, scalable systems that integrate seamlessly with Scotland’s energy infrastructure. Every installation is future-ready and aligned with the country’s 2030 and 2045 climate goals.

“The EV industry has reached a turning point, and we’re here to lead it into uncharted territories. At Source, we’re not just building charge points, we’re building confidence,” Deepa Chandrasekaran, Managing Director at Source, noted.

Cabinet Secretary for Transport Fiona Hyslop highlights, “We need to ensure that people from all parts of Scotland can benefit from this switch to EVs, so that no one and no part of the country is left behind.”

In October 2024, Scotland reached its target of 6,000 public EV charge points, two years ahead of the 2026 deadline. Source’s network is continuing to grow, with new ev charging locations being added across the country. We’re proud to support Scotland’s next milestone of delivering a further 4,000 public charge points by 2030.
