⚡ New EV Charge Point Installed at Tesco Ashington – Future-Ready for Rapid Charging

We’re pleased to announce the installation of a new EV Smart charge point at Tesco in Ashington, expanding public access to convenient and reliable electric vehicle charging in Northumberland.

The site currently features 1 x fast AC EV charge point, providing a practical solution for shoppers and local drivers — but the installation has also been future-proofed with infrastructure in place for a 50kW DC rapid charger upgrade.

🔋 Charging Today, Ready for Tomorrow

This installation forms part of our commitment to supporting accessible charging across both urban and rural locations, working closely with trusted retail partners like Tesco.

We’ve designed the site to:

• Meet current demand with fast AC charging

• Include the electrical and groundworks infrastructure needed to support a future upgrade to a 50kW rapid charger without disruption

• Seamlessly integrate with our EV Smart back-office platform and mobile app

Whether you're doing the weekly shop or stopping by while passing through, you can plug in and power up with ease.

📱 How to Use It

Using the charger is simple:

• Download the EV Smart UK app via App Store or Google Play

• Start and stop sessions through the app or with your RFID card

• Monitor usage and get VAT-compliant receipts instantly

• 
  

You’ll also find this location listed on Zap-Map and other major mapping platforms via Cirrantic integration.
