Zest launches 18 ultra-rapid EV charging bays in London
Fairfield Road site boosts Edmonton’s public charging network with speeds up to 300kW.
Zest has opened a new ultra-rapid charging facility in Edmonton, North London, located on Fairfield Road and offering 18 high-speed charging bays capable of delivering up to 300kW to electric vehicles (EVs).
The opening is part of Zest’s expanding EV network across London, which includes partnerships with Hackney Council, Brent Council, and Transport for London (TfL). The Edmonton facility is designed to meet growing demand for public EV charging, especially in areas where home charging is not feasible.
“Public charging must keep pace with the rapid growth of EV adoption, particularly in London where private driveways are less common,” said Robin Heap, CEO of Zest. “Ultra-rapid facilities like this one on Fairfield Road represent a vital investment in Edmonton’s future—supporting residents, local businesses and private hire drivers. They make sustainable transport a more practical choice while playing a meaningful role in the area’s broader regeneration.”
Zest’s approach targets underserved areas to make EV adoption more practical for everyday drivers, including private hire operators and delivery services, supporting both local mobility and environmental goals.
The Edmonton launch reinforces Zest’s mission to make EV charging more equitable and convenient, accelerating the UK’s transition to zero-emission transport.
