A Laois councillor is calling for more outside the box thinking as rural Ireland transitions from fossil fuel engines.
Fine Gael Graiguecullen/Porarlington rep, Aisling Moran, is questioning the practicality of electric cars for those in rural areas, who do high mileage on a weekly basis.
Laois County Council recently committed to installing 20 charge points around Portlaoise and a further 30 throughout the region.
Councillor Moran says these facilities should have been in place sooner:
