InstaVolt has opened its ultra-rapid charging site in Winchester, providing 44 ultra-rapid chargers, each capable of delivering up to 160kW of power.
The Winchester Superhub is strategically located near the A34 and close to junction 9 of the M3.
It features drive-through bays for larger vehicles and towing setups, extra-long van bays, and dedicated accessible charging spaces.
In addition, there is an on-site Starbucks café, 24/7 toilet facilities as well as play park.
The site is InstaVolt’s first superhub to integrate an on-site solar farm and battery storage technology.
This solar farm will feature 870 solar panels and the site will use a mixture of solar energy, battery storage, and renewable grid power to keep chargers running at optimum capacity.
A 4MWh battery storage system allows the site to store and efficiently use renewable energy, ensuring maximum uptime and sustainability.
Delvin Lane, CEO of InstaVolt, said, “The Winchester Superhub isn’t just a charging hub – it’s a flagship site that sets a new standard for ultra-rapid EV charging.
“As our largest and most advanced site to date, it delivers industry-leading reliability at an unprecedented scale, ensuring drivers can charge quickly and with confidence.
“This site is also a milestone in innovation, marking our first-ever location where we are generating our own renewable energy – pushing the boundaries of sustainability and self-sufficiency in EV charging.
“Above all, we are redefining what EV drivers can expect when they charge – seamless, ultra-rapid, and future-proofed charging that makes the switch to electric easier, faster, and more accessible than ever before.”
