By / 2 years ago / UK News / No Comments

Raw Charging has opened a brand-new ultra-rapid electric vehicle charging hub in the heart of Croydon.

The latest ‘ChargeYard’ hu will allow eight vehicles to charge simultaneously

Located just off Waddon Marsh Way, next to Valley Retail Park, the new charging hub will enable private and business drivers in the area to charge their vehicles in as little as 30 minutes.

The latest ‘ChargeYard’ hub features four dual Alpitronic 150kW chargers which will allow eight vehicles to charge simultaneously. Drivers can pay for charging through contactless debit and credit cards, a mobile app, or RFID cards.

Bruce Galliford, RAW Charging CEO, said: “The launch of our latest ChargeYard will provide a vital EV charging resource for the people of Croydon. Based in the town centre, the new location will be of great benefit to those who live and work in the area.”

RAW’s charging infrastructure portfolio stretches across London and the wider UK and is rapidly expanding.

Galliford added: “By converting previously disused land we are bringing sites back into use in a sustainable way while providing a crucial resource.

“We hope increasing the availability of charging infrastructure will encourage more individuals to embrace electric vehicles as we move towards the UK’s net carbon zero future.”
