Key Things To Know Before Charging An EV
Where can I charge the EV?
The charge card is compatible with the dedicated charge post in the EV parking bay. It will also be compatible with any other charge posts on the same network. If a charge post compatible with the charge card is not available, simply pay, and claim back the cost via our mobile app.
Please note: Some charging points have a maximum stay period and may charge you fees for exceeding this.
Find your closest chargepoints using Zapmap, Ecotricity, Charge Your Car, Google Maps or Charge Place Scotland.
What cable can I use?
Many charge points will have a tethered (attached) cable. Make sure that this cable is type 2 (see reference image) as these are compatible with our EVs.
Some charge points may not have a tethered (attached) cable. For this reason, all of our EV’s are equipped with a cable which can be plugged into the charge point. It is important to always take this cable with you once you have taken the vehicle off charge as the cable belongs to the car and not the charging point.
How long do EVs take to charge?
There are 3 types of chargers which will charge the EV at different speeds*, they are as follows:
Rapid charger (50kW/h) – 0-80% in 40 minutes
Fast charger (22kW/h) – 0-100% in 3 hours
Standard charger (7kW/h) – 0-100% in 6 hours
*Please note that some EVs are not compatible with fast chargers.
How do I use an EV charge point?
- Tap your charge card
- Use the charge cable provided if the charge point does not have one available
- Plug in the EV
- When the vehicle is charged, tap the charge card to finish and unplug when you are ready
- Remember to take the charging cable if it belongs to the vehicle
