The ‘Media’ launch of GRIDSERVE’s first Electric Forecourt – The first of at least 100.
GRIDSERVE has developed its first site specifically for charging Electric cars, located in Essex. It has 24 covered bays of chargers plus Type 2 and Tesla Superchargers outside. Plus shops, including Costa Coffee, Post Office, and a lounge.
Cost of charging
24p/KWh is really excellent – and it’s the same whichever capacity charger you use.
On hearing the price, see video, Andy Wright commented
This means a typical charge for an average electric vehicle – from 20% charged to 80% – would cost under £10.

Using Exclusively Renewable Energy
It will use clean energy sourced from one of the UK’s first subsidy-free solar farms at Clayhill in Bedfordshire, and a battery capable of storing enough energy to drive 24,000 miles.
