By / 3 years ago / UK News / No Comments

Electric vehicle charging reimbursement specialist Mina has grown its Chargepass network further in partnership with InstaVolt.

Mina’s tie-up with InstaVolt gives users of the Chargepass solution access to one of the largest public rapid charging networks in the UK

The tie-up gives users of the Chargepass solution access to one of the largest public rapid charging networks in the UK with almost 1,000 charge points either active or in development.

The InstaVolt network, which spans convenient locations such as Costa Coffee, McDonald’s and Booths Supermarkets, is also expected to grow by a further 500 charge points in the next 12 months and plans to introduce higher-powered chargers later this year, capable of charging at speeds up to 160kW.

This year also saw InstaVolt named as the UK’s best public charging network by Zap-Map based on driver ratings and was a finalist in the 2021 EVIE ‘Private Sector Infrastructure Strategy of the Year’ for the second year in a row.

The partnership further expands Chargepass, said to be the UK’s largest dedicated business network and consolidating all the charging costs for an entire fleet within a single monthly VAT invoice, including public, at home or in the workplace.

Ashley Tate, CEO and co-founder at Mina, commented: “Minimising downtime while charging in public is the number one priority for fleet operators. Our partnership with InstaVolt now gives our Chargepass customers access to the most liked and most reliable network in the UK and further reduces the risk of drivers not being able to charge during busy periods.”

Adrian Keen, CEO at Instavolt, added: “For the past five years, InstaVolt has been setting the standard across the UK for EV charging infrastructure and driver experience and I’m proud that we consistently top user surveys for ease of use and reliability, both of which are important to businesses and fleets making the switch to electric. We’re delighted to be establishing our presence further with Mina and making business travel easier and more reliable for EV drivers across the UK.”
