New statistics show?the number of high-power charging hubs more than doubled?in the last year
Our latest statistics for UK charge point installations show that the number of high-power charging hubs across the country has more than doubled since September last year.
They also demonstrate encouraging growth in two key areas of the country’s charge point infrastructure.
Ultra-rapid chargers and slow charge points – mostly found on residential streets – exhibit the most impressive year-on-year growth of the different power bandings, both increasing by 68% since September 2022.
