A new four-bay, 200kW ultra-rapid charging hub which is minutes from Heathrow T2 & T3, will help serve high-mileage taxi, private-hire and commercial drivers.
LEAP24 has opened a new 4-bay ultra-rapid charging station minutes from Heathrow Terminals 2 and 3, making it the only charging network with ultra-rapid locations within 7 minutes from both Heathrow and London City Airport.
The opening builds on LEAP24’s focus on supporting London’s taxi and private-hire industry, with a growing network across the capital designed to put fast, competitively priced charging closer to the journeys these drivers make every day.
LEAP24 has also worked directly with Uber to have the site added to its Heathrow waiting area, helping drivers using the platform fit charging more naturally into their working day.
Through the LEAP24 Partner Card, drivers can charge for 54p/kWh during the day and 45p/kWh between 10pm and 7am, compared with the standard tariff of 69p/kWh.
John Leddin, UK Country Head at LEAP24, said:
“Living and working in London, I see every day how important taxi and private-hire drivers are to keeping the city moving. We understand what matters to drivers who rely on their vehicles for their livelihood; convenient locations, fast charging and fair, transparent pricing. That’s what we’re working to deliver across London.”
