Shell opens its first UK all-EV charging hub
The site includes a Little Waitrose and Partners, a Costa Coffee and 9 ultra-rapid chargers.
This new charging hub, situated in Fulham, South West London will have 9 ultra-rapid chargers and ample facilities to relax and recharge yourself and your vehicle.
The site includes a Little Waitrose and Partners for snacks, dinner and essentials as well as a Costa Coffee.
“The opening of Shell Recharge Fulham Road is a special moment for me personally and for Shell UK’s EV ambitions. I do hope you are able to come along and say hello,” said Bernie Williamson, General Manager, Mobility, Shell UK.
In Fulham, Shell has converted one of their conventional fuel service stations into an electric vehicle charging hub that features 9 high powered, 175kW charge points.
The fuel retailer plans to grow their EV charging network to over 5,000 charge points. Part of this development is the opening their first EV hub in the UK.
The canopy is made from sheets of timber glued together which uses much less energy to produce and transport than steel, solar panels are built into the canopy roof to provide around a quarter of the site’s electricity needs, and double glazing has high insulating properties that reduce energy use both cooling in summer and heating in winter.
All electricity supplied to the EV charge points and the station are from 100% certified renewable energy sources, according to Shell.
