Plymouth Car Charging Points

Good try Bengie, and I wish you were right.
Here's the "Holy Grail" of EV Chargers for anyone who wishes to go down this route.


25p per Kwh - dream on - Instavolt are now charging 66p per Kwh at transit way, the savings for using EVs is being diminished at great pace.
The price goes up depending on the speed of the charger, most motorway Rapid Chargers cost 59p Kwh, also we are still not at the top end of the electricity price rises which come in during October.
So as they say in all things - Caveat Emptor (buyer beware). I think most EV owners must be aware that the fuel cost savings they may be enjoying right now won't last and of course the Government really do need to capture the monies they will lose from the i.c.e. cars.
Tricky, especially when you see how much EVs cost.
Oh by the way, there are now 15 Rapid Chargers at Exeter which is a step in the right direction.

No worries, Benjie, it's quite a complex situation. I have a couple of friends who are kicking around the EV option and can't make their minds up. There's so much to take into account. One guy has a load of money coming to him late next year (retirement loot) and keeps updating his thoughts on a weekly basis. It's a very big decision to make and if you or anyone reading this is going along that way my advice is to get as much info as you can on the subject, but I also advise to await until the energy situation stabilises.
