If Welcome Break really are stopping new Tesla sites because they want to push their own then it's really short-sited. They need both / all categories of chargers at their sites if in the future all cars will be electric. Ultiimately all the sites should be like the Gridserve hubs with 20-30 rapid chargers, and then slow chargers in all the remaining parking spaces so people who are staying longer can still get a bit of charge.
I disagree, the brand is sort of irrelevant, as long as it has a CCS plug and a decent output, they work, are available and have a reasonable price, I couldn’t give two cares who operates it.
20-30 rapid chargers are not going to be enough for an MSA.
They’ll need 10+ 350kw units just for coaches at busy sites like south Mimms, then add in HGV and cars.
South Mimms already has 20 rapid chargers, admittedly they are not the best (mix of V2 supercharger, 50kw and 150kw units) but they are constantly rammed.
