EV Chargers Details
What are electric vehicle charging ports?
All electric vehicles require a charging port to power them up. There are already many public charging points across the UK, but they lack the convenience and safety of a home EV charger. You most likely wouldn’t want to leave your petrol or diesel vehicle unattended at the petrol station for several hours. So why would you do the same thing with your electric vehicle at a public EV charging station? With electric vehicles (EVs) becoming increasingly popular in the UK, more drivers are learning how electric car chargers work than ever before. Unlike fuelling a petrol or diesel car, drivers have more to consider when using an electric car chargepoint, such as different connectors, compatibility with their EV, and different charging rates.
EV charging at work
The UK Government offers a grant, called the Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS) to encourage more adoption amongst businesses. It reduces the cost of purchasing and installing single-socket chargepoints at workplaces by 75% (capped at £350 per socket). Charging an EV at work can be very convenient, as people typically spend a decent amount of time at their workplace. Also, as most commuting drivers cover fewer than 30 miles to get to work, their EVs won’t need long to recharge to full, so 7kW charging stations are often sufficient. Rapid chargepoints may however be beneficial to quickly refill fleet vehicles which can’t park up for long.
