UK households with driveways ‘might have to install new device’ by 2030

By staff3 August 2025No Comments3 Mins Read

A warning has been issued over a new device that must be installed at homes across the UK by 2030 – and it could affect motorists and drivers who have electric vehicles

UK households with driveways have been alerted to the possibility of needing to install a new device by 2030, as warnings are issued to electric vehicle (EV) owners about potentially obsolete technology.

Simpson and Partners, an eco-friendly charger manufacturer, is advising motorists and road users to consider the lifespan of their home EV charging points.

The firm predicts that over 100,000 charging units will be discarded by 2030. Mandy Simpson, co-founder of the company, issued a stark warning to EV owners across the nation: “It’s time consumers knew the truth about charger lifespans – and some won’t last as long as the electric cars they charge. It comes after drivers told they risk £1,000 charge if they don’t ‘take photo’ on holiday

“Building the electric vehicle infrastructure is crucial to encourage greater electric vehicle uptake, but not if the chargers can’t be updated. An SandP charger will not end up in landfill, they are engineered and designed to last.

“The majority of chargers bought today are sealed units that can’t be updated – they have to be thrown out and replaced as new technology arrives.”

David Simpson, co-founder and COO, expressed his excitement about their new chargers being fully accredited with the Intelligent Octopus GO energy tariff, reports Birmingham Live. He said: “We are very excited that our new chargers are fully accredited with the Intelligent Octopus GO energy tariff, which makes light work of charging an EV when prices are the most competitive.

“It opens up mass-market smart charging that’s inclusive, effective, and ready for whatever car you drive. Additionally with our vehicle to grid capability, customers will in the future have the opportunity to earn cash when sending energy back to the grid.

“A huge thanks to the Kraken and Octopus teams for working together with us to deliver the benefits of the Intelligent Octopus Go to our loyal customers.”

Mandy continued: “We refuse to design, engineer and manufacture products that just end up in landfill. It really should not be happening in our journey to a more sustainable world.”
