Like any charging item or gadget, both electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles need an EV charger to keep the battery charged. Just like any other appliance or item you charge by putting into the wall, an EV charger draws an electrical current from either an outlet or the grid it is connected to and distributes that power to the car.
The infrastructure for charging electric vehicles (EVs) in the UK is expanding and changing to accommodate EV drivers. In the UK, there have been a lot more public EV charging stations installed.
Through community or guest charging, some of these charge outlets are accessible to the general public. The charging network consists of many charge station types, from high-speed en-route chargers and charging hubs to destination chargers and on-street provision, for a variety of use cases.
The UK EV Charger Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
A new charging station for EV owners without driveways has been introduced by Connected Kerb, a UK-based developer of solutions for electric car charging infrastructure.
The Chameleon is a brand-new charging point in the shape of a bollard that was created and produced in the UK. It is one of the market’s smallest and least disruptive twin charger options for public on-street charging.
The Chameleon is under one meter tall, accessible to wheelchair users, and not subject to planning approval. It is made primarily from recyclable steel.
It adheres to the modular architecture of all Connected Kerb charging points and supports emerging technologies like 5G, the Internet of Things, and air quality sensors. It also has an underground enabling infrastructure that contains crucial components.
The Chameleon supports both 7 kw and 22 kw charging rates and is available as a single or dual charge socket. This implies that while the Chameleon won’t be a super-fast charger, it will work just fine for overnight charging.
Following the construction of eight new 150kW chargers, InstaVolt says that its electric vehicle (EV) charging center in Banbury, Oxfordshire, is one of the largest in the UK.
Along with eight other 125kW chargers already present at the location, Alpitronic chargers have been added. Along with the new chargers, the hub has enhanced its general services to include more lighting, broader access areas, and two longer spots to suit the growing number of electric vans and fleet vehicles.
A small wildflower meadow and benches are also planned for the area to boost biodiversity and provide a habitat for pollinating insects.
