Recently, InstaVolt has started construction at Welcome Break Corley Services (M6, between J3-3A) for the UK's first motorway charging site featuring on-site battery storage directly linked to its chargers, which will ensure consistent ultra-rapid charging performance even during peak demand.
InstaVolt has been awarded a Zapmap ‘EV driver recommended 2026’ award in the ‘Large rapid / ultra-rapid’ network category of its annual network rankings.
