The chargers will be located in car parks, retail locations and along major transit routes, growing Osprey’s network by over 50%.

Jane Hunter, Tritium CEO, said: “In 2021, approximately 190,727 new electric vehicles were sold in the UK, a staggering increase of 76% compared to 2020, setting a new record for the country and a strong indicator of the UK’s technology switch.

“We’re delighted to strengthen our relationship and key partnership with Osprey to support their infrastructure coverage goals and increase access to rapid charging, enabling drivers to transition to EVs with a fast, reliable and convenient charging experience.”

Osprey installed its first Tritium charger in April 2021, followed by a December 2021 announcement that expanded the Osprey network with 100 Tritium chargers.

Ian Johnston, Osprey CEO, said: “We have already installed Tritium rapid chargers at many of our most popular locations, including sites with improved accessibility and at our South London high-power charging hub. We are excited to add the dynamic load-balancing PKM chargers to our rapidly expanding UK network, optimising charger output across a number of cars plugged in simultaneously and ultimately improving driver experience.

“Tritium is an instrumental partner in helping Osprey deliver on our goal of creating a high-quality, inclusive, reliable charging network that’s worry-free and accessible for all.”
