State-owned utility will also introduce contactless payment at all high-power charging stations
ESB ’s electric vehicle charging platform has announced price cuts of up to 13 per cent across its network of chargers in the Republic from Friday amid declining wholesale energy costs.
The reductions will see unit rates for high-power chargers – equivalent to 200 kilowatts – fall by 13 per cent, fast chargers down by 12 per cent and standard chargers by 8 per cent, ESB said in a statement on Thursday. The new overstay fee structure is 50 cent per minute and kicks in after 45 minutes on high-power and fast chargers and after 10 hours on standard chargers.
ESB, which operates a network of some 1,600 chargers across the Republic, is also encouraging EV drivers to turn on notifications on the ESB Ecar Connect app to keep track of their overstay fees.
