New EV chargers now at Chantry Place

Zest, one of the UK’s fastest-growing EV charging networks, has invested in new EV charging facilities at Chantry Place, providing 16 sixteen charging bays in our car park.

Zest will also operate and maintain the charging facilities, in order to provide a reliable long-term service for customers and staff.

According to recent research by LCP Delta, 74% of UK EV drivers would more frequently visit destinations with charging facilities. The chargers at Chantry Place have been selected to reflect the average dwell time, with 22kW fast chargers adding around 90 miles range in an hour. The first eight charging bays are now open in our lower-level car park, with the second phase set to bring eight more in our upper-level car park.

Paul McCarthy, our general manager, said: “Our aim is to provide an unrivalled retail and dining experience in Norwich and provide everything under one roof for shoppers. We are incredibly proud of the 1,000-space car park we offer and being sustainable is a huge priority for us, so we are incredibly grateful to Zest for their support and putting these EV chargers at Chantry Place.”

Robin Heap, Zest CEO said: “We know that people just want to charge where they park as part of their normal routine. Retail destinations, like Chantry Place, that respond now to this demand are those that will thrive as new EV drivers establish their charging habits.”

Zest is one of the UK’s fastest growing Electric Vehicle (EV) charging networks. The company provides and operates EV charging infrastructure for the commercial real estate sector and for local authorities across the country.
