Drive Energi is expected to consist of 2,500 charging locations by 2025, with at least 100 sites live by the end of January 2020. The network will be a mix of public and private charging solutions.

Kevin Pugh, Tritium’s business development manager for UK and Ireland, says: “With the average daily commute in the UK in the vicinity of 20 miles, a single 20-minute charge will add about three days of range to an EV.”

“The sheer scope of the proposed Drive Energi network means that people will easily be able to find a charger, no matter where they are and no matter when they need it,” he adds.

As part of the deal, Tritium will supply 24/7 support for the network, including on-site support. Each charger features a modem which is constantly transmitting data to Tritium’s team of support engineers, who can be contacted by phone.
