Gridserve opened 32 new ultra-rapid chargers in January, located at four new Electric Super Hubs on major UK highways.

New installations include six chargers at Moto Cherwell Valley

The chargers are each capable of up to 350kW and powered by net zero carbon energy. New locations include eight chargers at Solstice Park on the A303 near Stonehenge as well as six chargers on the M23 at Moto Pease Pottage and 12 at Moto Reading Westbound. Gridserve has also deployed six chargers at Moto Cherwell Valley.

The sustainable energy and EV charging business now has 173 chargers located at 16 Electric Super Hubs and two Electric Forecourts, while its Electric Highway network has chargers in 169 locations.

All of its chargers feature both CCS and CHAdeMO connectors, accept contactless payment and provide real-time status updates to leading EV charging maps, simplifying customer use.

CEO Toddington Harper said: “We are thrilled to be building on the great progress we made in 2022 with four new Electric Super Hub locations opening in January alone. As the demand for electric vehicles and charging increases, it is vital we continue this pace to roll out the installation of high-power chargers to support EV drivers and those making the switch to electric. We look forward to continuing our vast expansion throughout the rest of 2023.”
