Electric Car Doom

Ecotricity hits EV drivers with £5 fee for 20 minute charge | Motoring Research

The company behind the UK’s ‘electric highway’ and sole provider of electric car chargers at motorway service stations has announced it’s going to start charging a fee for charging your electric car.

£6 for 30 mins, same price as Andyw's Mum and MrsMF, they have a charging unit at ClientCo, always full of Outlander PHEV, I assume they get the tax benefit but without having to actually rely on an electric engine

Milk the eco loons I say.

Massive reduction on BIK for PHEV cars. Takeup will grow massively in the next two years for company cars.

Convert motorway service stations to be nuclear power stations. Charge electric cars for free. £1000/litre for everyone else.

Any extra leccy can go to the grid.

Simples.
