Telecoms company hoped to convert roadside cabinets into charge points but will now shut down its sole installation
BT has scrapped a plan to turn roadside green cabinets into electric car chargers, after only managing to install one.
The British telecoms company had spied a chance to use the existing electricity connections to the cabinets, which usually house telephone and broadband internet equipment, to quickly install chargers. However, it will now shut down its sole charge point, in East Lothian, Scotland, according to the Fast Charge, a charging newsletter.
