Today we're open 8am - 6pm
National electric vehicle (EV) charging network Be.EV have installed 8 x rapid chargers at Yate Shopping Centre in the main car park off Station Road.
South Gloucestershire has one of the lowest percentages of EV chargers in the UK, now complete – the Yate hub will provide a huge boost to the region’s charging provisions.
The chargers will offer EV drivers visiting the centre a location to quickly charge their vehicles on long journeys, as well as benefit shoppers and the local community.
The centre will be equipped with ultra-rapid Kempower chargers (up to 150kW), which can add up to 165 miles of range in a short 20-minute stop – a solution that matches the site’s customer dwell time.
The chargers also feature unique dynamic load-balancing abilities, meaning they can intelligently distribute power between vehicles according to capacity and demand.
This gives drivers a better charging experience when a location gets busy, and allows for more charging bays at locations with the same amount of available power.
Be.EV is one of the fastest-growing EV charge point operators (CPO) in the UK. The network is majority-owned by Octopus Energy Generation.
