Weev Brings New EV Charging Stations To Co Armagh

Weev has partnered with Rushmere Shopping Centre in Craigavon to provide four new electric vehicle (EV) charging stations.

The installation of the EV charging stations at Rushmere Shopping Centre will enable customers to get 100 miles within 1-2 hours of charging by using two 24kW DCs and two 22kW ACs.

The new charging stations are part of Weev's multi-million pound investment programme that will roll out thousands of EV charging stations across Northern Ireland and beyond over the coming years.

Thomas O'Hagan, Chief Commercial Officer at Weev, stated: "It is great to welcome Rushmere Shopping Centre to our ever-expanding network of location partners as we continuously aim to make EV charging more accessible to drivers across Northern Ireland and beyond.

"By partnering with Rushmere we are offering a vital service to customers who drive EVs and helping the shopping centre future proof its facility for many more years to come.

"We look forward to working with more shopping centres, hotels and other convenient location partners as businesses across the region are increasingly searching for ways to adopt sustainable practices in everyday operations."

The new facilities also mark the return of EV charging to Rushmere Shopping Centre as they were previously installed at the centre.

Martin Walsh, Centre Manager at Rushmere Shopping Centre, said: "We are thrilled to be partnering with Weev to reinstall charging points in our car park as we are seeing a rise in the number of customers arriving in EVs.

"At Rushmere we strive to provide choice and convenience to our customers and with the recent installation of chargers we are excited to be offering them the best-in-class EV infrastructure.

"Installing the EV charging hub has allowed us to further strengthen our green credentials by reducing operational impact on the environment and add to our list of already impressive facilities."
