FAST charger maker Tritium has installed its 150th rapid charger in partnership with UK charging network evyve. It is located in Bramcote, Nottingham.
The original purchase order for 350 Tritium fast chargers was announced at the beginning of 2023. The majority of the 150 chargers manufactured and delivered have been installed at retail sites owned by Greene King pubs – useful for fleet drivers wanting to stop off for a quick bite to eat at lunchtime.
This is a critical time for the development of the EV infrastructure that many industries rely on. Car manufacturers need their customers to have trust in the rapidly expanding electric vehicle charging network, with assurance that they will have great EV charging accessibility, convenience, and reliability. We’re incredibly pleased to have made this progress with evyve in support of its reliable charging network rollout and ambitions for the UK market.
David Nicholl, Tritium Chief Sales Officer Tweet
evyve reports that its network of Tritium DC fast chargers demonstrates incredible reliability, with one of the highest uptime rates of 98%.
The charging stations are now widely accessible in multiple locations across the country from Eastbourne in the south of England to Edinburgh in north Scotland. The 150th charger has been installed , which is strategic to the area and enables company car drivers and passing visitors to recharge while enjoying hospitality provided at the local Greene King pub.
We are on a mission to drive sustainable solutions quickly and to improve the UK’s EV infrastructure. Currently a lack of charging infrastructure is often cited as one of the biggest barriers to EV adoption in the UK. As we install our 150th Tritium charger, we want to spread awareness of our partnership and celebrate the swift progress we are making with the deployment of Tritium fast chargers nationwide.
