Is this charger compatible with my EV?

Check the connector list above against your vehicle's inlet. Most modern UK EVs use CCS for DC rapid charging and Type 2 for AC. Tesla vehicles can use Tesla Superchargers and CCS.

How long does charging take?

At 180 kW, a typical 60 kWh EV can add roughly 80% of charge in 20–30 minutes. Real times vary with battery temperature, state of charge and vehicle limits.

How do I pay in the UK?

Most UK rapid chargers accept contactless card payment directly at the unit, as required by recent regulations. You can also pay in the GridServe app, or use an RFID card. Sign up before you arrive for the smoothest experience.

Is the station open 24/7?

Public chargers at motorway services and forecourts are typically accessible 24/7, but those at supermarkets, retail parks or business car parks may follow venue opening hours. Check the operator app for current access.

What if the charger is occupied or broken?

Most UK operator apps show real-time availability and let you report faults. If a stall is broken, try another stall on site, or check Open Charge Map for nearby alternatives.
