'For the last decade or so it's been the case that Britain's clean energy mix has continued to improve, and thus the environmental argument for EV has strengthened over time. But with two major macro-economic shocks in the past five years, and the accompanying knock-on effect on energy prices, the financial argument for individuals and families has regrettably weakened, however our partnership with OVO goes a long way to address this.'
This innovative new partnership between Hypervolt and OVO, after long last, couples Britain's highest rated EV chargers with the nation's more affordable EV charging tariff, Charge Anytime, allowing customers to charge for just 7p/kWh (that equates to less than 2p/mile for many new EVs.
Since launching in 2009, from the modest launchpad of an Cotswold's barn, OVO has rightfully earned its place as a disruptor in the UK energy market, recruiting it's 100,000th member in 2012 and achieving the notable accolade of removing coal from it's energy supply mix in 2015. Their turnkey EV charging project, launched in the summer of 2023 is just the latest in a long and illustrious line of sustainable projects, strengthened by it's addition of Britain's preeminent EV charging brand into the mix.
'This project has been over a year in the making, and is just the first phase in what will be a far-reaching relationship which adds even more incentive for drivers to make the sustainable switch to EV' Hypervolt's Head of Partnerships David Woodford enthuses. He continues 'for the last decade or so it's been the case that Britain's clean energy mix has continued to improve, and thus the environmental argument for EV has strengthened over time. But with two major macro-economic shocks in the past five years, and the accompanying knock-on effect on energy prices, the financial argument for individuals and families has regrettably weakened, however our partnership with OVO goes a long way to address this.'
OVO allow prospective customers the opportunity to select from four different chargers from three brands with Hypervolt sitting as the 'premium offering', a perfect fit for the true green advocate. Currently OVO customers can now visit OVO's website and get a turnkey EV charger supply and installation, from one of OVO's 100+ team of UK wide engineers, all in one place. Should you have a compatible electric car you can take advantage of Charge Anytime's 7p/kWh tariff rate right now, whilst a full Hypervolt integration with Charge Anytime is in the works and tipped for launch in the spring of 2024.
