New £1m electric vehicle charging point set to open at Telford Centre - here's when
Work on 18 new electric vehicle charging points in Telford has now been completed, with the facility set to open this week.
The new charging points, which the centre says have been developed with Be.EV who are one of the fastest growing public electric vehicle charging networks in the UK, will offer 300kW fast chargers capable of adding 325 miles of range in as little as 20 minutes.
The new charging points are located at the restaurant and cinema car park at the Telford Centre, between ASDA and TGI fridays.
Asif Ghafoor, CEO of Be.EV, said: "This milestone at Telford Centre shows exactly why Be.EV is the trusted partner of choice for retailers and communities across the UK.
"It is not just about building charging points — it is about delivering reliable, future-proof infrastructure that keeps pace with the rapidly growing EV market.
“This £1 million investment is a bold statement of our ambition to make ultra-fast, convenient charging accessible to everyone, right where they live, work, and shop. We are proud to be leading the charge towards a cleaner, greener future."
Between July 9 - 16, users of the EV chargers can get 50% off when they pay via the Be.EV app, in a Welcome Week promotion. The offer is available to all customers via the Be.EV app and can be redeemed on an unlimited basis, not subject to a minimum spend criteria.
Katie Broome, Marketing Manager at Telford Centre said: "We are very pleased to be able to offer visitors to Telford Centre the ability to also charge their electric vehicles while they visit us to shop, dine or enjoy our leisure offering. We are sure the facility will be very popular with customers."
