- New hub is located at Twyford Services on the A46 / A44, strengthening public charging coverage on a previous ‘cold spot’ of the Strategic Road Network
- With 16 ultra-rapid chargers, this is one of the largest public charging hubs in the region
- Osprey Charging accepts contactless payment via the Zapmap charging card and directly in the Zapmap app.
Drivers travelling through the Midlands and West of England can now benefit from one of the region’s largest ultra-rapid EV charging hubs, following the opening of a new flagship site at Twyford Services, Evesham, developed and operated by Osprey Charging.
The new hub provides 16 ultra-rapid chargers, making it one of the largest public charging locations on Osprey’s nationwide network. Positioned at Twyford Services just off the A46 and A44, the site strengthens charging coverage on a key route linking the Midlands, South West and Wales, an area identified by National Highways as a “cold spot” in rapid charging provision on the Strategic Road Network.
Unlike many charging installations, the Twyford hub has been built on land owned by Osprey, enabling the company to deliver a larger, purpose-built charging facility using its latest hardware and software platforms.
The hub uses Kempower ultra-rapid chargers capable of delivering up to 300kW, typically adding around 100 miles of range in 15-20 minutes depending on the vehicle.
The charge points accept contactless bank cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, RFID cards like the Zapmap charging card, as well as payment directly in the Zapmap app where live status and availability of every Osprey charger can be found, 24/7.
The site also features new Adyen payment terminals, allowing drivers to enter their PIN when required - improving reliability for customers when bank cards cannot complete contactless transactions.
The site has been designed as a high-capacity hub suitable for everyday drivers, businesses, fleets, and long-distance travel, with easy accessibility, clear bay layout and space for future expansion.
Ian Johnston, CEO of Osprey Charging said:
Reliable, high-power charging hubs on major UK roads are essential for the transition to electric vehicles. Twyford Services is a flagship site for Osprey - a large, purpose-built hub in a location that needed better charging coverage. Because we own the land, we have been able to build a bigger, future-proofed site using our latest technology, giving drivers the confidence they need to travel long distances in an EV. This is exactly the kind of reliable, super-fast infrastructure the UK needs as electric vehicle adoption continues to grow.
