Power conversion solutions company Nidec Conversion has announced it is partnering with JET, the retail arm of energy firm Phillips 66, to offer EV chargers across the UK.
The new project will involve the roll-out of Nidec EV chargers with Battery (Multi) across JET branded forecourts.
The first installation has already been completed at Brentford Services with other sites scheduled for roll-out throughout 2025.
The project will see Nidec’s EV charging technology power JET Charge – JET’s own-brand and ultra-rapid charging proposition – fitting with JET’s strategy to diversify and evolve its offering and meet the increased demand for accessible EV infrastructure in the UK.
JET Charge, which began rolling out in 2024, features ultra-rapid EV chargers up to 400kW. With the specific aim of streamlining the motorist experience, it operates a pay-as-you-go pricing model with no minimum spend, and does not require an app or a subscription.
The project aims to further strengthen Nidec’s positioning in the UK EV charging market, expanding its national footprint whilst providing the infrastructure necessary to support the 2035 zero emission vehicle goal set by the UK Government, it said.
Helroy Tauro, Country Leader – UK&I, Nidec Conversion, commented:
“We are excited to partner with JET to deliver reliable, fast, and accessible EV charging across the UK, supporting the nation’s shift to sustainable transport. Together, we are advancing the UK’s EV transition and building a greener future.”
Steve Jackson, Business Development Lead at Phillips 66, said:
“JET is a driver-first brand, committed to offering a first-class service to all drivers. We are happy to be working with Nidec to implement our EV offer.”
