A car park is often viewed as a simple necessity. But for many destination businesses, it can be much more than that.

On-site EV charging encourages drivers to stay longer while they charge, enabling them to visit a cafรฉ, browse a shop or enjoy a meal.

For pubs, hotels, sports and leisure centres, and tourist attractions, that extra dwell time can translate into additional revenue and a better customer experience.

As EV adoption continues to grow, destination charging is becoming an increasingly valuable commercial asset.

Our latest Zapgo Insights article looks at how businesses can harness EV charging to increase their footfall and gain additional revenue.

Building EV infrastructure isn't simply about installing more chargers.

It's about delivering charging in the places where drivers actually need it - in places which are currently falling behind in EV charger provision.

That requires collaboration between charge point operators, landowners, local authorities, stakeholders and distribution network operators to ensure the infrastructure beneath every charger is ready for the future.

In our latest Zapgo Insights article, we explore why long-term planning and stronger grid connectivity will be essential to delivering a charging network that works for everyone.

Access to reliable EV charging shouldn't be a postcode lottery.

Many of the UK's most popular tourist destinations, hospitality venues, sports clubs and local businesses are located outside major towns and cities. Yet rural communities often have far fewer public charging options available than urban areas.

As EV adoption continues to grow, drivers need confidence that they can travel anywhere in the country without worrying about where they'll charge next.

Our latest Zapgo Insights article looks at why rural charging matters and what needs to happen to ensure communities across the UK aren't left behind.

EV charging is needed across the country, not just in town centres. The biggest challenge facing rural EV charging, however, is hidden underground.

For charge point operators, grid connectivity can be the difference between a site being viable or not. Even where demand exists, limited grid capacity, lengthy connection processes and upgrade costs can delay much-needed infrastructure.

In our latest Zapgo Insights article, we explore why grid connectivity is becoming one of the most important issues facing the future of rural EV charging and discuss how we can overcome this through collaboration with other stakeholders.

It was great to join the celebrations at the new Callerton Co-op store opening last week.

The community event coincided with the launch of our new ultra-rapid charging site at Callerton Rise Retail Park, helping bring convenient EV charging to local residents, shoppers and visitors.

Representing Zapgo on the day, our COO, Ross Mabon, said:

โ€œIt was fantastic to attend the opening of the new Callerton Co-op and celebrate the launch of our ultra-rapid charging site alongside the local community. As this neighbourhood continues to grow, itโ€™s important that the supporting infrastructure grows with it. By working with partners such as Co-op, we can deliver convenient charging in locations where people already live, shop and spend time, making EV ownership easier and more accessible for drivers.โ€

We're very pleased to have opened our latest ultra-rapid EV charging site at Callerton Rise Retail Park near Newcastle and are offering an introductory tariff of 50p per kWh until 9am on 12 June.

The new site features a 200kW ultra-rapid charger serving two charging bays, giving drivers a convenient place to power up while visiting local businesses including Co-op, Greggs and Harrison Family Vets.

Located just 8 minutes from Newcastle Airport and close to the A1, the site will support local residents, shoppers and motorists travelling through one of the North East's fastest-growing communites.

As EV adoption continues to grow across the region, we're proud to be delivering rapid and reliable charging infrastructure where drivers need it most.

Zapgo Insight:

One of the biggest shifts in the EV market right now is psychological.

Drivers increasingly see EVs as a safer and more practical financial decision rather than an aspirational purchase.

Against the backdrop of increasing fuel prices, drivers are being drawn to EVs by improving charger reliability, increasing charging speed, ease of payment, and growing confidence in the rapidly expanding EV charger network.

Zapgo Insight:

The UK now has over two million registered EVs.

That milestone says a lot about how quickly driver behaviour is changing.

As fuel prices fluctuate and household budgets remain under pressure, more drivers are prioritising certainty, convenience and lower running costs.

At Zapgo, weโ€™re playing our part by ensuring the charging infrastructure rollout keeps pace with that demand.

Last month, we were very proud to support the Burscough Cricket, Sports and Social Club vs Lashings World XI Charity Cricket Match, held nearby to our charging site at The Stanley Club, Burscough.

The event brought together hundreds of spectators from Burscourgh and the surrounding area for a fantastic local celebration.

With all proceeds from the match going towards youth development at Burscough Cricket Club, Zapgo is proud to continue playing our part in supporting local communities around our charging sites, having donated ยฃ10,000 to The Stanley Club, Burscough last year to support essential building repairs.

We remain committed to investing in the communities in which we operate and look forward to continuing to support residents and visitors in Burscough over the coming years.

If youโ€™re involved in a local event near one of our chargers, why not reach out to us to see how we can help you!

Zapgo Insight:

Rising pump prices are fuelling EV uptake.

For many drivers, the shift to electric is now less about ideology and more about practical economics.

Lower running costs. Reduced maintenance. Less exposure to global fuel market shocks.

UK EV registrations have accelerated sharply in recent months and so reliable charging infrastructure has never mattered more.
