Where do I charge my electric car?

You have two choices you can either have a charger installed at your home or use a public charge point. The difference is that the public charging points have higher kilowatts output and therefore will charge your car in a shorter time than a home charger. Generally public charging points are rated at 7kW, 22kW, 50kW  100kW, 150kW & 350kW, whereas home charging units are generally rated at 3.6kW or 7kW. The majority of public charge points are currently rated at either 7kW or 50kW. 

The rate at which your car takes the charge is car specific. For example there are no cars available at the moment that will take the charge at 350kW, you need to check the manufacturers specification for the car to establish the maximum charge, although you can generally still connect to the higher rated charging point but you won’t benefit from the higher capacity of the charger.
