Gridserve has doubled the number of high power charging bays in its Electric Super Hub at the Moto Rugby site to a total of 24.
The upgraded site next to the M6 has CCS connectors, accepts contactless payment and provides real-time status updates to several EV charging maps.
These ultra-rapid charging bays are capable of adding up to 100 miles of range in less than ten minutes.
Moto Rugby is now also available on the Gridserve charging app, where users can find, navigate and pay for charging in one place.
The hub is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week and the chargers are powered by 100% net zero carbon energy including power from the company’s hybrid solar and battery farms.
A further 12 Gridserve high power charging bays will be added at Moto Rugby before the end of the year.
Moto now has 401 Gridserve charging bays across 42 sites in the UK and Gridserve’s ElectricHighway is made up of about 195 locations with more than 1,500 charging bays.
Ken McMeikan, Moto Hospitality’s Chief Executive, said, “The expansion of High Power charging bays at our flagship Rugby site will provide a significant boost for EV drivers travelling on the M6 by helping to reduce range anxiety.”
“It demonstrates our continued commitment to revolutionising the EV charging experience for EV drivers on the UK’s motorway network through increased capacity, reliability, simplicity and speed.”
Roy Williamson, Gridserve Interim CEO and Executive Chairman, said, “Gridserve are committed to delivering reliable and easy to use EV charging across the UK.
“We are constantly learning and making improvements to our sites. We look forward to welcoming drivers to the new and improved Moto Rugby Electric Super Hub.”
