Osprey joins Electroverse.

• Osprey Charging are the latest electric car charging network to join Octopus Energy’s new roaming service, the Electroverse
• Osprey Charging operates over 150 rapid charging stations at over 100 locations across the UK
• The Electroverse Network simplifies electric car charging on the go, adding all costs onto one bill

Following the successful launch of its Beta version in May 2020, on 29th July 2020 Octopus Energy announced a new addition to its Electroverse Network (formerly Electric Juice Network)  – the rapid charging network provider Osprey Charging.

In addition to Osprey Charging’s 100 rapid charging locations, London’s first rapid charging hub will also be included in the Electroverse. Osprey Charging launched the hub in partnership with Transport for London (TfL), at Stratford International Station car park in 2019.

The inclusion of rapid chargers and more national locations means that the Electroverse now has significant inner-city and on-the-road coverage, a great step towards ensuring EV drivers have access to the network wherever they are.

Drivers of electric cars will now be able to pay with their Octopus Energy account across both Osprey Charging and Char.gy charging networks, with all costs appearing on a single bill. As further networks are added to the roaming service, users of Electroverse will soon be able to access many more charging stations nationwide.

With this ‘one-stop shop’ Octopus offers a solution to a long-standing problem of EV drivers, who have criticised that there’s no standardised way of paying as each network has a different card or app. The service is open to all drivers of electric cars so that everyone can benefit from this new and more convenient way of charging – whether they are already one of Octopus Energy’s 1.5 million customers or not.
