HEADING to the pub for a charge is a new excuse for nipping out for a quick drink – just don’t drink and drive.
Three new charging points have been installed at a Knowl Hill venue, to help people keep their electric vehicle motoring on.
Osprey Charging has placed the 75kW chargers at the The Bird In Hand, and they can be used by residents, businesses and visitors. They are compatible with every EV on the market, and can give 100 miles’ worth of charge in 35 minutes – and gives the perfect excuse to visit the popular hostelry while the cables do their thing.
Ian Johnston, CEO of Osprey Charging, said: “We’re delighted to launch this flagship charging location that brings the latest in rapid charging technology to Berkshire.
“The electric transition is well underway and we’re here to provide a reliable and rapid public charging service for drivers, from Cornwall to the Scottish Highlands.
“Osprey now has over 800 charge points installed across the UK, each carefully designed to maximise space, accessibility and availability and made to the latest and highest standards.
“This new charging site at the Bird in Hand in Knowl Hill is a vital part of the re-charging network that will enable the decarbonisation of transport in the UK.”
Osprey has funded this installation, operation and oversees maintenance of the chargers which are all supplied with renewable energy.
