The new Pimlico hub, connected by UK Power Networks Services, significantly boosts the ultra-fast EV charging offer in central London. Previously, only thirteen ultra-fast charge points were publicly available across all charge point operators in 2023.
The new solar energy infrastructure is one of the largest car port array installations in the UK and features 800kW solar panels, while also providing weather protection for electric vehicles. Additionally, there is a 400kW battery energy storage system with smart controls to optimise energy use, carbon emissions and costs throughout the day.
Plan includes an 800kW solar photovoltaic (PV) carport array – a combination of solar panels connected to form a large installation which provides weather protection for electric vehicles and generates power – along with a 400kW battery storage system with smart controls to make energy use more efficient. Â
