It forecasts that Britain, with a 2030 fossil-fuel car sale ban, could be short 25,000 EV technicians by 2032. And Australia could be 9,000 EV technicians short by 2030, the Victorian Automotive Chamber of Commerce predicts. CEO Lawrence Whittaker said Warrantywise must use expensive franchise dealers to fix EVs because they more often have qualified technicians than independent shops. Customers lacking EV repair options already come from far afield. The IMI estimates 20% of UK automotive technicians have received some EV training, but only 1% are qualified to do more than routine maintenance.

☆ UK's Taylor Wimpey to build fewer homes in 2023 as weak demand weighs

Jan 13 (Reuters) - British housebuilder Taylor Wimpey Plc (TW.L) on Friday forecast that it will construct fewer homes in 2023 than in the previous year as affordability concerns and economic uncertainty kept homebuyers on tenterhooks. Taylor Wimpey expects its annual operating profit to come in line with company-compiled consensus of about 921 million pounds ($1.12 billion), almost similar to market estimates from November. The FTSE 100 company, which also has a minor presence in Spain, said it built 14,154 homes in the UK including joint ventures in 2022, in line with its production outlook "broadly similar" to 14,087 units a year ago. The High Wycombe-based company said year-end order book - a key measure in gauging sales performance in the short term - excluding joint ventures stood at 1.94 billion pounds, compared with 2.55 billion pounds a year earlier.

The company joined bigger rival Persimmon (PSN.L) in flagging increasing stress in the housing market. Taylor Wimpey said it now expects 2022 volumes to be broadly similar to the previous year. For the second half of the year to date, Taylor Wimpey said its sales rate had dropped to 0.51 homes per outlet per week and its cancellation rate had risen to 24%. That compares with a sales rate of 0.95 homes and a cancellation rate of 14% for the same period a year ago.
