I suspect multi occupancy will be partially affected by the old chicken/egg problem, not many flats with EVs because of charging issues so no real demand for chargers. Landlords only want to spend the bare minimum so will wait until they are either forced by law (and enforcement) or until demand is sufficient that there’s reason (and profit) to going through with the install.
It’s easy for HAs with houses to look good and install chargers for these houses. However, most occupants of their flats aren’t particularly likely to have an EV within the next decade unless through the Scheme.
When I think of city living, with blocks of flats or converted houses into flats or houses of multiple occupancy then the parking situation is usually inadequate just for flat numbers and parking space. Add in the EV situation and there’s no chance these can be retrofitted in any hurry. Even in converted houses with the front gardens converted to parking it’s doubtful a landlord would be keen on fitting a charger. How it would work where the occupants are effectively freeholders and leaseholders (leaseholder flats but equal share of freehold exists with all flats) I can see some dodgy installs with external cables coming from each flat’s meter and each charger locked by software or shared through one of the many apps.
The speed of these chargers isn’t really needed to be too quick, most will plug in for an overnight low to full charge if they’re paying even a commercial electric tariff, they’ll still cope with the same charging practices as the rest of us with domestic tariffs, if that was remotely possible. The usual 7.4kWh chargers would be perfectly adequate in all cases.
