bp Pulse opens new EV charging hub at Gatwick Airport
bp Pulse has opened a new electric vehicle (EV) charging hub at Gatwick Airport that allows up to 10 vehicles charge simultaneously.
The new facility, at the airport's Q-Park car park, features three ultra-fast 150kW chargers, alongside four 50kW chargers, bp said in a statement on Wednesday. In addition, it said the 150kW chargers will be upgraded to 300kW via hardware updates in future.
The ultra-fast charging units are capable of charging an EV to 80 percent capacity in as little as 10-15 minutes providing a range of around 160 km.
“We want to bring convenient, fast charging where it is needed most. The opening of this latest hub at the UK's second busiest airport is another important step in our roll out of ultra-fast charging,” bp Pulse CEO Akira Kirton said in a statement.
