You can charge at home, at work or at thousands of public charging points across the UK. Charging locations are growing rapidly, making EV ownership more practical than ever.
Home charging is the easiest and most cost-effective way to get your EV ready. A dedicated wallbox delivers faster charging than a standard socket and supports scheduled overnight top-ups. Charging at night often means lower electricity rates, saving you money. Start each day with a full battery and the confidence to go wherever the journey takes you.
Many businesses now offer convenient on-site EV chargers for staff and visitors. This allows you to recharge while you work, making use of otherwise idle parking time. It’s ideal for commuters, fleet drivers or professionals attending meetings. Workplace charging helps maximise range, reduce downtime and support greener business practices – all while keeping your electric vehicle ready for the road.
The UK has a wide and rapidly expanding public charging network. Charge point numbers grew from 28,460 in 2021 to more than 73,000 by late 2024 – a 30% rise since April of that same year.
You’ll find convenient charging locations at supermarkets, shopping centres and motorway services. Rapid chargers offer quick top-ups, helping you continue your journey with minimal waiting and maximum convenience.
Charging times depend on your
vehicle and charger type. A 7 kW home wallbox typically delivers a full charge
in six to eight hours, while rapid chargers are much faster.
