The move means that anyone purchasing a Volvo plug-in vehicle will be offered a POD Point Solo charge point as the first choice of charge point provider for their home. In addition, drivers can have charging points installed at their place of work; iether a POD Point Solo or a POD Point Twin unit, depending on factors such as power supply and number of charging bays required on site. 

POD Point has also partnered with Carbon Footprint to offset the first 5,000 miles of electricity for each homecharge POD Point installed, giving drivers time to think about switching to a greener energy tariff.

Erik Fairbairn, CEO and Founder of POD Point, said “We are very pleased to be working with such a respected company as Volvo Car UK to provide the very best customer service and installation experience in the UK. We take pride in training and educating plug-in vehicle owners on getting the most out of their electric vehicles. There is a wave of momentum in the EV industry now with many manufacturers producing PHEVs, and with more than 47,000 plug-in vehicles on the road in the UK already, we are starting to see plug-in cars become the de facto way to drive.”
