If drivers have problems during charging sessions, we provide a 24/7/365 support line too.
FAQs
How long do the chargers take to charge a typical car fully?
This is a sum of the car battery kW divided by the charger kW. Therefore, a 7kW battery on a 7kW charger would take 1 hour or a 14kW battery on a 7kW charger would take 2 hours, and so on. Different car models have different battery sizes, however a common size could be 50kW – therefore this would take roughly 7 hours to charge on a 7kW charger.
What does hardware agnostic mean?
It means we can provide CPO services to any charger which is open charge point protocol (OCPP) compliant. This means we have a wide selection of charge points we can choose to install and adopt.
Can you provide signage or painted bays to help EV zones stand out?
Yes, we have partners to help us do this, and we’ve done it at our Bristol office too.
Do you only install certain models of chargers?
No, we are not exclusive to any charge point manufacturer, however we do have preferred chargers we like to install. As EV technology is changing rapidly, we have a product team who constantly review the chargers we install so that we are installing the best products for you, with the latest technology.
What is EV infrastructure?
EV infrastructure refers to the chargers themselves, as well as associated hardware needed for an EV charger install. This can include cabling, ducting, distribution boards, poles etc.
