New hub: New Hall Hey Retail Park
New public charging hub at the New Hall Hey Retail Park in Rossendale, Lancashire, has eight high-powered EV chargers compatible with every Electric Vehicle (EV) on the market.
Osprey Charging, one of the UK’s largest and leading electric vehicle (EV) charging networks, has increased access to public charging in Lancashire with eight high-powered EV chargers installed at the New Hall Hey Retail Park in Rossendale, supporting local residents, businesses and visitors with reliable EV infrastructure.
The ultra-rapid charge points can deliver up to 300kW and are compatible with every EV on the market today, typically add 100 miles of range in just 15-20 minutes, depending on the model of the vehicle and its battery. Situated in the retail park, the chargers are an ideal place to charge an EV whilst popping for a bite to eat or doing some shopping, with an M&S Foodhall, Costa and Aldi all on-site.
The chargers are easy to use and designed with simple payment for drivers, accepting contactless bank cards, Apple/Google Pay, the Osprey App and RFID card payments as well as payments through all major third-party payment methods including fleet cards.
Access to charging is one of the biggest barriers to EV adoption and the installation is expected to encourage EV uptake in the area, bolstering the UK’s national charging infrastructure as well as improving local air quality, reducing noise pollution and supporting local decarbonisation efforts.
