What are the different types of EV chargers?
7kW: home EV charger
Installing an EV charger at home makes it easy to keep your battery topped up and ready to go. You can fully recharge your car overnight, ensuring it's ready for your daily adventures. Enjoy the benefits of charging times and the comfort of charging at home, right where you need it. Average time to charge a battery from empty: 6-8 hours
50kW: rapid public charger
Public charging stations often offer the option of rapid charging, which can be especially handy if you’re driving a long distance. These chargers quickly fill your EV to 80%, then slow down the rate of charging for the last 20% to protect the health of your battery.Time to charge a battery to 80%: 40 mins
22kW: fast public charger
You’ll find 22kW chargers in public places like car parks, supermarkets, and motorway service stations. It is technically possible to get a 22kW charger at home, but you’d need to upgrade to ‘three-phase electricity’, which can cost over £10,000, plus you’ll need permission from the network operator (known as the DNO).Average time to charge a battery from empty: 3 hours
350kW: ultra-rapid public charger
