An EV charging forecourt has been opened by leasing company Novuna Vehicle Solutions.
The facility, which is open only to Novuna customers and employees, is located at its premises in Trowbridge.
It includes 12 22kW AC charging bays, for which electricity comes from an overhead solar canopy as well as a grid connection, while four 100kW DC charging bays are available elsewhere on the site.
The forecourt features the UK’s first permanent cableless, fully wireless EV charging facility with charging pads across each of the parking bays, designed to accommodate cars and vans as well as accessibility bays.
Novuna managing director Jon Lawes said: “The opening of our groundbreaking EV charging forecourt represents a major milestone not only for Novuna Vehicle Solutions but for the entire contract hire and leasing industry.
“Our flagship charging facility in Trowbridge truly showcases, for the first time, the breadth of our unique end-to-end charging capability and the energy management solutions we can offer to fleet customers right across the EV charging ecosystem helping them to future proof their business operations.
“As a leading advocate for zero-emission vehicles, the launch of our sustainable state of the art EV forecourt also underlines our commitment as a company to carbon neutrality as one of the largest and greenest charging facilities in Wiltshire.”
