The roll-out of EV charging facilities is quickly gathering pace and we’re here to provide a reliable and rapid public charging service for all drivers, from Land’s End to John O’Groats. Osprey now has over 1,300 charging bays available in convenient locations across the UK, carefully designed to maximise space, reliability and ease of use. The new charging hub in Watford will form a vital part of the re-charging network that will enable the decarbonisation of transport in the UK
Ian Johnston, CEO of Osprey Charging.
Osprey Charging is dedicated to delivering super-fast, simple and convenient charging to all EV drivers, and the new Hertfordshire hub is a crucial part of Osprey’s roll-out of public charging infrastructure in key locations across the UK.
As EV uptake increases across the country ahead of the 2030 ban on new petrol and diesel vehicles, more and more of Hertfordshire’s visitors will look for EV charging as standard. As such, this installation will 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.
Osprey funds the installation and oversees the operation and maintenance of the chargers, all of which are powered by renewable energy. This is Osprey’s first hub developed in partnership with Legal & General who, as the landlord of the hub, benefit from a future-proofed car park and being able to attract more EV drivers as customers.
