POD Point and Airparks have partnered to offer free electric vehicle charging at Birmingham and Luton airport car parks.

The charging points will be free to use for Airparks customers.

Set to go live at the end of the month, the units will be available for customers using Airparks’ off-airport charging sites, and charging is provided at no cost.

Erik Fairbairn, CEO of POD Point, said: “This move makes sense for all parties. It gives EV drivers a clear destination of choice for secured off airport parking. This new partnership is an indicator of our expanding network and a further step towards our target of having a POD Point everywhere people park for an hour or more by 2020.”

Andrew Bird, General Manager at Airparks, added: “We’re committed to constantly evolving our products to benefit our customers’ needs; and this new service means that people driving electric vehicles can use Airparks’ car parks and return from their trip to a fully charged vehicle.”
