Are you looking for a Portsmouth car charging zone? Check out the map below to find your nearest electric car charging points in Portsmouth on the Bonnet app.
Born from the minds of 2 electrical engineer students, Bonnet was created to revolutionise the world of EV charging. Some people opt for electric vehicles because of the low running costs or in an effort to cut air pollution, but there’s one thing all EV drivers lack from their chargers - simplicity.
Each charging network requires different cards, apps, accounts, and payment information. It’s a tedious process that makes it that much harder to charge your vehicle. With Bonnet, you can rock up to almost any electrical car charging station, plug in, and charge. Drivers can choose from the Refill or Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG) plans.
On the Refill plan, drivers can pre-pay for their charge at a significantly reduced rate. Essentially you pay for the electricity before you use it - with any leftover charge rolling over to the next month! Bonnet users can also choose the PAYG option, which charges the driver for every charging session at the default electricity rate.
Bonnet makes finding and paying for your next charge even easier. Our aim is to accelerate the uptake of low-emission transport by making charging networks accessible to everyone, even if you don’t have a private driveway!
With the Bonnet app, you are connected to the best charging networks in Europe. One app, one account, one payment, all your charges sorted.
On England’s south coast, Portsmouth is home to eco-conscious residents, visitors, and students enjoying this historic port city. Driving electric vehicles is one way locals aim to reduce air pollution and fight climate change. Yet, it’s Portsmouth’s award-winning charging system that is really supporting the locals' transition to cleaner transport.
Portsmouth City Council houses the charging points inside streetlamp columns where the unit draws the electricity. Rather than draining the electricity from the streetlight, it uses spare electricity from the circuit. Although this method takes longer to charge your vehicle than other charging points, it presents a useful step for homeowners without their own charging station.
Within the UK, Portsmouth became one of the first authorities to approach on-street charging in this way. This is particularly beneficial for residents who don’t have an EV charger installed in their home, as it allows them to park up and safely charge their car overnight.
Whether you’re looking for an overnight charger or you’re only visiting for the day and require a rapid electric charging point, Bonnet can connect you to the nearest unit. Download the Bonnet app on Google Play or from the App Store.
