Use of solar panels on roofs to help with loading on the current electricity supply network should be stipulated on all new builds, together with charging points for electric vehicles. Individual houses should have one EV point and solar panels that connect to the property. For HMOs, flats , etc. there should be a provision for at least one EV point for every 2 dwellings (each room a dwelling in HMO) with connection to solar and /or battery storage. Where roofing gives poor solar efficiency, batteries could be utilised together with off-peak charging to provide additional peak capacity without stressing the existing supply infrastructure. This would contribute to net zero
