The above-mentioned charging hub (center) is built at the intersection of three motorways in the central part of England, which also has 30 ultra-fast 300 kW charging stations that can charge enough in 15 minutes to drive a car 100 miles (160.93 km) while there are also 150 slow charging points of 7 kW.

Akira Kirton, CEO of electric vehicle charging company BP Plus, which serves the UK, told the media that this is part of a billion-pound project that will see hundreds of charging stations set up in the country over a decade.
