Frequently Asked Questions
The cost of EV charging infrastructure depends entirely on individual requirements, for example; how many charge points are needed and if there are any additional power requirements.
Our charging experts work with you to create a tailored strategy and charging solution for your retail premises that will provide accessible charging for EV drivers.
In 2022, the UK implemented new rules mandating the installation of electric vehicle charging points in all new commercial buildings with parking spaces. For renovations in buildings with 10 or more parking spaces, one charging point is required for every 5 spaces.
And from 2025, existing commercial buildings with more than 20 parking spaces must have at least one charging point installed.
Charge point power and charging speed is dependent on location and grid availability.
There are two types of charge points available – fast (AC) 3.7kW-22kW and rapid (DC) 22kW-300kW.
An AC charger could power a car in 4+ hours, while a DC charger is better for a quick turnaround. The type of charge points you install depends entirely on the charging capability you wish to offer EV drivers. Our charging experts will help you consider what type of charging is best for your site by establishing a customer’s average dwell time, for example, a retail park or supermarket might offer DC charging to customers who may typically spend 45-120 minutes at its destination.
