RAW Charging has activated new electric vehicle (EV) charging facilities at more than 50 Greene King sites since March 2023, with a plan in place to bring online a further 25 sites per month going forward, it has announced.

The firm has activated a further 250 EV chargepoints at the Greene King sites since March 2023, which it claims is one of the fastest rollouts in the hospitality sector. In total, it has activated more than 500 EV chargepoints for Greene King across the UK since the rollout began.

According to RAW, guests who own EVs are more likely to choose hospitality options with charging facilities, and businesses will “dramatically increase the chances of repeat business” for such customers through word-of-mouth and third-party platforms.

RAW is equipping Greene King sites with multiple, user-friendly EV chargepoints, with chargers suitable for a dwell time of over two hours, such as at a Greene King pub or hotel.

RAW’s other major clients include Merlin Entertainments, Bespoke Hotels and National Trust alongside commercial property owners where RAW is developing brownfield land into their own Charge Yards, including new developments in Bishop Auckland and Croydon.

Jason Simpson, CEO, RAW Charging, said: “EV charging is now a must have for hospitality, leisure and retail businesses. The speed of our rollout at Greene King sites demonstrates the importance of reliable charging infrastructure for one of the UK’s leading pub retailers.

“At RAW Charging, we are a leading provider of EV charging solutions and we are seen as the go-to chargepoint operator for businesses in the hospitality, leisure and retail sectors.”
