Nearest other points are in Birmingham and Leamington Spa.
A report said: “To facilitate expansion in use of electric vehicles it is essential that a network of charging points is developed.
“Without this people are less likely to consider the purchase of an electric vehicle as an option. With projects being delivered in Birmingham, Coventry and Leamington,
“Solihull is ideally placed as a mid commuting point to extend the range of travel for existing electric vehicle owners.”
