GRIDSERVE has announced the opening of its latest Electric Super Hub at Moto Lymm Services on the M6, delivering one of the UK’s largest Ultra-rapid EV charging facilities at a motorway service station, strengthening EV infrastructure in the North West.
Conveniently located at J20 of the M6 and J9 of the M56, this key location runs between Liverpool and Manchester. The Super Hub features 24 x 400kW-capable EV chargers, which are powerful enough for the latest electric vehicles to add up to 100 miles of range in less than 10 minutes. This latest provision is in addition to the six EV chargers already installed by GRIDSERVE at the site, that will continue to support both CCS- and CHAdeMO-equipped vehicles.
As with all GRIDSERVE Electric Super Hubs, the site is powered by 100% renewable energy and can be found via the Zapmap app where live status and availability information is shared 24 hours a day.
Rebecca Trebble, Chief Customer Officer at GRIDSERVE, said:
“As EV adoption continues to accelerate, drivers need more than just fast chargers; they need charging infrastructure they can depend on. That’s why we continue to invest heavily in large scale Electric Super Hubs like Moto Lymm, delivering high numbers of ultra-rapid charging bays at strategically important locations across the UK’s motorway network.
“By deploying charging infrastructure at this scale, and continuing to focus on enhancing speed and reliability, we’re giving drivers the confidence that charging will be available whenever they need it. Moto Lymm is a fantastic new hub for people traveling in and around the North West and another example as to why GRIDSERVE remains the UK’s most used EV charging network.”
Ken McMeikan, Chief Executive of Moto Hospitality, said:
“We are passionate about transforming the EV charging experience across the UK motorway network. The expansion at Moto Lymm Services demonstrates the success of our partnership with GRIDSERVE and our shared ambition to provide high-quality, ultra-rapid charging at modern, well-equipped service areas. As EV adoption continues to accelerate, increasing capacity at key locations like Lymm is essential to meeting driver demand.”
