“It is our hope that, through this significant investment, we will enable easier access to charging points, ultimately helping more households switch to EVs.” “At Lidl, we are committed to tackling the environmental concerns that our customers care most about, whilst giving them access to solutions that will support them in their ambition to lead more sustainable lives,” Fischer said. Lidl GB’s chief development officer Ingo Fischer said the chargers, which will be operated by Pod Point and listed on Zap Map, represent a total investment of £25m for the retailer. Customers wishing to use the infrastructure will be charged per kWh of power and, while Lidl has not yet confirmed pricing, claims it will be the “best price on the market”.
The majority of these locations will be new stores – including 50 due to open by the end of 2019 but the retailer has also committed to adding the infrastructure to all existing stores which are able to accommodate it.Īccording to Lidl, the new chargers will be capable of charging most EV models to 80% range within 50 minutes.

Lidl’s commitment will see the company install rapid EV charging infrastructure at 300 supermarkets in Great Britain over the next three years. Lidl is already operating rapid EV chargers at 20 of its Irish stores (pictured).
