Chargemaster seeks to expand POLAR network

Chargemaster has announced an expansion in its POLAR charging point network, and plans to install over 2,000 new points across the country.

This includes over 1,000 charging points in London, some of which will replace old stations where there has been substantial criticism of ‘out-of-order’ charge points.

Chargemaster will also transfer more than 300 existing charging points from the Source London network later this year. Originally installed by Chargemaster, they are currently controlled by Bolloré and will now form POLAR London.

Around 600 points will be located in entirely new locations, with a focus on destinations such as hotels, supermarkets and health clubs. When complete, the POLAR UK network should number around 6,000 charging points.

Chargemaster is also offering to replace local authority controlled units free of charge.
