Part 2: Electric Vehicles: Charging Chapter 2: Policy background Section 14: Transmission of data relating to charge points
This Section provides the Secretary of State with a power to make regulations to ensure the ongoing transmission of data from charge points to specified persons (who could include the National Grid and electricity distribution network operators). Regulations may also specify the type of data which is subject to the obligation, as well as the form in which it is to be transmitted.
	Subsection (3) provides that where regulations relate to public charge points the obligation to transmit data will be placed on the operator of the public charge point.
	For non-public charge points regulations may prescribe the persons who will be similarly obligated. Subsection (4) clarifies that such persons do not include owners or occupiers of domestic premises. However, if a prescribed person (who could include a company such as a charge point operator) also owned a domestic property, then the intention is that requirements would still apply to them in their capacity as a prescribed person.
