Forecourt giant Motor Fuel Group (MFG) is celebrating World EV Day by revealing key milestones for its rapidly expanding EV Power network, which now accounts for over 10% of the UK’s entire rapid charging infrastructure.
This year alone, MFG has opened 243 ultra-rapid charging bays, taking its network to over 1,450 ultra-rapid chargers
This year alone, MFG has opened 243 new ultra-rapid charging bays across 39 sites nationwide, taking its total network to more than 1,450 ultra-rapid chargers.
So far in 2026, the company estimates its network has powered more than 250 million electric miles, as demand for ultra-rapid charging surges.
The milestone comes as EV adoption accelerates nationally. There are now more than 2.15 million fully electric cars on UK roads, with electric vehicles accounting for over a quarter of new car registrations so far this year.
MFG is investing over £400m into its EV charging network in line with the UK’s ambitious climate goals and the ongoing transformation towards cleaner, greener road transportation.
The charging operator remains committed to its long-term EV strategy, targeting over 3,000 ultra-rapid chargers across 500 sites by 2030, as part of its mission to build one of the UK’s largest and most reliable charging networks.
As part of its commitment to accessibility and convenience, MFG has installed rapid EV charging bays across nearly 300 Morrisons supermarkets.
Many of its sites are co-located with leading retail and food-to-go brands, including Greggs, Pret A Manger, Burger King, Subway and Costa. This enables drivers to relax, grab a bite, or pick up essentials while they charge.
MFG’s charging bays deliver power at 150kW, 300kW and up to 400kW, enabling drivers to add up to 100 miles of range in just 10 minutes for compatible cars.
Martin Symes, Motor Fuel Group’s EV director, said: “World EV Day is a great moment to reflect on MFG EV Power’s achievements this year. We’ve opened 243 new ultra-rapid charging bays, powered millions of electric miles, and cut our prices for drivers this summer, all while EV ownership in the UK continues to increase. We’re proud to be delivering a nationwide network, powering the nation’s journeys today, and building the infrastructure it needs for tomorrow.”
