Osprey Charging launches largest EV hub in Wales

The new 16-bay location at Glamorgan Vale Retail Park follows recent openings at Cardiff’s Capital Shopping Park and Billy Jeans Café in Holywell.

Osprey Charging has opened its largest Welsh hub at Glamorgan Vale Retail Park, marking a significant milestone in its expansion across the country. 

The new charging location in Talbot Green, Glamorgan features 16 bays equipped with charge points compatible with every electric vehicle (EV) on the market today. This site builds on Osprey’s commitment to providing essential infrastructure for Wales’s growing number of EV drivers. 

This launch follows recent openings, part of an ongoing expansion that has brought more than 50 new rapid and ultra-rapid charge points to the country in 2024. 

“Our goal is to make EV charging available and dependable for every driver, wherever they live and travel in Great Britain. Opening our largest hub in Wales at Glamorgan Vale Retail Park is a major step forward in achieving that vision, and we’re proud to be one of the driving forces behind Wales’s EV transition,” said Ian Johnston, CEO of Osprey Charging.

Since installing 12 rapid charge points with Cardiff Council in 2020, the company has been delivering convenient charging solutions across Wales. 

The Glamorgan Vale Retail Park hub exemplifies these efforts with simple payment options, including contactless bank cards, Apple/Google Pay, the Osprey App and RFID card payments.
