bp pulse has made significant progress in delivering the roll-out of rapid and ultra-fast electric vehicle charging infrastructure in 2023. Over the last 12 months, bp pulse opened nine new EV charging hubs including the country’s largest to date at the NEC in Birmingham.

Last year, the company committed to investing £1 billion in the UK’s EV infrastructure over the next decade, with a focus on rapid and ultra-fast charging in convenient locations for drivers.

The company has now more than doubled the number of ultra-fast charge points on its UK public network, compared with the same period the previous year. The network now operates over 3,000 high speed charge points across the UK.

“I’m delighted in the overall progress we have made in 2023 and the major milestones bp pulse has achieved, opening nine new EV charging hubs across the country, including the UK’s largest. We now have 20 EV charging hubs across the country and plans for hundreds more by 2030,” said Akira Kirton, vice president of bp pulse UK.

Nine EV charging hubs, each with at least six ultra-fast charge points, were added to the bp pulse network over the year. In September 2023, bp pulse unveiled the UK’s largest public EV charging hub at the NEC Birmingham. The Gigahub was officially opened by The Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Rt Hon Jeremy Hunt MP, and can simultaneously charge up to 180 EVs.more than 3,00
