What are ChargePlace Scotland?
ChargePlace Scotland provides a simple and convenient way for electric vehicle drivers to travel across Scotland and access a range of charging facilities.
Where are ChargePlace Scotland?
The ChargePlace Scotland network spans the length and breadth of the country - there are currently over 2,400 publically available charge points across Scotland ranging from charging destination ‘hubs’ to dedicated spaces at supermarkets, offices and public car parks.
You’ll also find high speed charge points at remote locations in the highlands and islands as well as in major towns and cities. Plus if you have a driveway, there’s financial help to cover the cost of having an electric vehicle charging point installed at home if you stay in a rural and remote area or island of Scotland or if your vehicle is being funded by the used EV domestic loan for consumers.
