How to charge your EV in the UK
6 min read
Find a charger
Use the EvReserve map to search by postcode, town, or motorway services. Filter by connector type (Type 2, CCS, CHAdeMO) and power level so you arrive at a bay that fits your car.
Book or walk up
At EvReserve network sites you can pre-book a connector slot in the app with transparent pricing. On roaming partners, start a session from the app once you plug in.
Plug in and monitor
Check in when you arrive, connect the cable, and track kWh and cost live in the app. VoltAssist can help if the session fails to start.
Finish and move
Stop the session in the app when charging completes. Idle fees may apply if you stay parked after finishing, move promptly to avoid extra cost.
