BP/Polar/Chargemaster are rolling out some new rapid chargers - 150kw/h.
They have installed some very close to me, next to Hammersmith Flyover at the BP station there. It just opened 5 days ago, and is their first in London:
BP Chargemaster installs London’s first 150kW ultra-fast charging hub on a public network – BP Chargemaster
It's actually on my usual route into/out of town which is super convenient and more so than the nearest Tesla Supercharger. My guess they put them there so black cab drivers can charge on their way to Heathrow. I saw 4 cabs charging, using all the bays, the other night.
Has anyone used these yet? If so, what is the pricing? Do they work well with Tesla Model 3? Price wise it's a little confusing - the Polar Plus website said they cost 20p/kWh if you have their subscription. But when you click on the point on the map it says they are free...?
I think there are one or two more of the Polar 150kw installed around the UK, but they are installing a lot more this year.
Don't have my car yet but still weighing up charging options as I can't charge at home.
