Electric Vehicle Charging

Thinking of installing an EV charging point?

Electric vehicles (EVs) are rapidly gaining popularity, particularly following the UK government’s announcement that it will ban the sale of petrol and diesel vehicles by 2030. The rise of EVs has created a market for electric charging points, and with this, different types and brands have emerged.

The UK government has approved three main types of EV charging points: rapid, fast, and slow.

  • Rapid chargers are designed for fast charging and can be found at motorway service stations and other public locations. They can charge an electric vehicle in as little as 20 minutes.
  • Fast chargers are popular in commercial premises, and employees can charge their EVs in a few hours while they are at work. The charging time depends on the vehicle and the charging point’s rating.
  • Slow chargers are usually installed in residential properties and take between 6 and 12 hours to charge an electric car, making them ideal for overnight charging.
