Gridserve is to create 100 electric vehicle charging hubs that will also host energy storage units and solar farms. The UK firm has secured 500 sites and is working with infrastructure company ChargePoint and engineering business Arup to set up the locations over at least £1bn . Costing the next five years ($ 1.3bn ) altogether, the hubs are expected to include as many as 24 ultra-fast charging bays that will fulfil maximum charging needs simultaneously. Ultimately Gridserve expects the stations will have 500 kW high power capacity, and also cover commercial and larger vehicles. Each location is expected to include up to 24 ultra-fast charging bays, with the batteries able to support maximum charging requirements simultaneously. An accompanying customer ChargePoint is being developed.
