Question 1

What is active EV charging provision?

Accepted Answer

It usually means charging infrastructure that is installed, specified for installation, or ready for use as part of the development — as opposed to passive provision reserved for later.

Question 2

Is active provision the same as operational chargers?

Accepted Answer

Often, but not always. Planning wording may describe intent at approval stage. Installers should verify the source document and project stage.

Question 3

How is active provision different from passive provision?

Accepted Answer

Active provision focuses on near-term or installed charging. Passive provision typically allows future installation through capacity, ducting or design allowance.
