I thank the witnesses for their opening statements and contributions. I refer to modelling and future projections. I recall a figure of 30,000 charging points referred to in some of the early climate action plans. Private or independent analysis was done earlier this year that stated 100,000 charging points would be needed. There is a big difference between 100,000 and 30,000 charging points. It has been acknowledged that technologies are changing and we understand that. How is that modelled and what is needed between now and 2025?
