The Powering change report sets out the realities of the transition and the support industry needs. Drawing on survey data, interviews and national statistics, it highlights the growing gap between targets and readiness, and the barriers facing operators – particularly SMEs – around costs, infrastructure, grid delays, payload penalties and the lack of long-term certainty.

The report makes the case for a clear, technology-neutral, government–industry roadmap backed by predictable policy and investment in skills, grid capacity and charging.
