GRIDSERVE has announced four more charging hubs for electric Heavy Goods Vehicles (eHGVs), as part of the Electric Freightway network.  

The newly confirmed locations at Moto Knutsford North, Moto Medway East, Markham Vale Electric Forecourt and Stevenage Electric Forecourt will extend dedicated ultra-rapid charging provision for electric freight into the North West, East Midlands and South East of England.

The new hubs will be specifically designed to welcome the largest of electric freight with dedicated bays, signage and superfast charging that optimises vehicle downtime. 

The announcement follows this year’s successful launch of the Electric Freightway’s first public eHGV hubs at Moto Exeter and Extra Baldock Services, where strong fleet engagement and operational performance have already demonstrated a clear and growing demand for ultra-reliable, ultra-rapid charging solutions for electric trucks on the UK’s strategic road network. Alongside today’s newly announced locations, five eHGV Hubs are already under construction at Tamworth, Thurrock, Leeds, Chester and Strensham North. 

Sam Clarke, Head of eHGV Programme for GRIDSERVE, said: “The expansion of the Electric Freightway reflects both the strong performance we’re seeing at our live locations and the clear regulatory and commercial momentum behind zero-emission freight.  

“Fleet operators need certainty, and they need infrastructure that matches their ambition. By announcing four additional eHGV hubs – alongside the seven sites we are already building – we are demonstrating our confidence in future eHGV charging demand and our commitment to creating a nationwide network that will enable the electrification of road freight.”
