The UK rapid charging network InstaVolt wants to encourage motorists to take advantage of cheaper electricity. From Sunday 1st September, drivers will be able to charge for 54p per kWh in stead of 85p, between 10pm and 6am.

The deal applies across InstaVolt’s entire network of currently over 1,600 rapid chargers. “We know the winter presents extra challenges, and we’re mindful that the cost-of-living crisis is still affecting people,. Besides that the price of energy is also set to increase following the recently announced October price cap,” explained Delvin Lane, CEO of InstaVolt. “Charging during our off-peak hours will create a significant reduction for customers ahead of this rise. Our new tariff will have the benefit of offering motorists who can’t charge at home, a cheaper rate of electricity.”
