Charging company Source has announced a partnership with OVO, expanding access to its ultra-rapid charging hubs for EV drivers and fleet operators across the UK.
The roaming partnership enables OVO’s customers using the OVO Charge app to charge at Source’s ultra-rapid hubs using their existing app or card, with no additional setup required.
Fleet managers and drivers can now access Source’s premium charging infrastructure through OVO’s established platform, which provides access to more than 50,000 charging points across the UK.
Source plans to open 300 ultra-rapid charging hubs across the UK and Ireland over the next five years, it added.
Most Source hubs feature 150kW chargers, allowing drivers to add approximately 100 miles of range in around 15 minutes for most vehicles.
OVO customers benefit from Source’s commitment to 99%+ uptime targets, AI-powered monitoring, and enhanced service level agreements, it said.
Alice Aprile-Smith, Head of Partnerships and Business Development at Source said:
“This partnership with OVO demonstrates our commitment to making ultra-rapid charging accessible to all drivers. By integrating with OVO’s established platform, we’re removing barriers and ensuring more drivers can experience Source’s stress-free charging. Whether it’s a fleet manager tracking costs through one monthly invoice or a taxi driver needing reliable rapid charging, this partnership delivers the accessibility and convenience that drives EV adoption.”
Alex Thwaites, Director of Electric Vehicles, OVO said:
“Partnering with Source means our customers can enjoy faster charging without changing their charging habits. By adding Source’s premium ultra-rapid hubs to the OVO Charge network, we’re giving drivers even greater access to reliable, high-speed charge points across the UK.”
