"We are here for drivers and if we're to support them to make a successful transition then charging needs to be both accessible and affordable. Working closely with industry and government, we’re committed to making that happen." Our CEO Delvin Lane has been speaking with BBC Radio 4's Today programme.

⭐Why Winchester?⭐ Next spring, our shiny new InstaVolt Superhub will officially open in Three Maids, boasting 44 fully accessible charging bays, including drive-through bays for large/towing vehicles, a cafe, bathroom facilities, and kids play area. But why there? Why Winchester? Here are 3 great reasons…. 🗺️Key travel routes - Positioned just metres from the A34 junction and close to the M3, it’s the perfect place for us to service EV drivers heading out on popular transport routes. 🛣️The numbers - Did you know, around 5.6million people visit Winchester every year! And more than 9 billion vehicle miles were travelled on roads in Hampshire in 2023 alone (DfT). We want to help keep EV drivers fully charged, with access to reliable charging infrastructure, when and where it’s needed. 🤝Supporting our region - It is also fitting that our first superhub will be within easy reach of InstaVolt HQ and that it is being built in partnership with local teams and suppliers, including our friends at Enviromena who are installing the on-site solar array, and the fantastic team at Parco Civil Engineering & Groundworks ltd who are handling its construction. #evs #electricvehicles #evchargers #charginginfrastructure #winchester

While there is much disappointment and controversy at the moment surrounding a weakening of the EV mandate – and we’ll just have to wait and see how that all plays out – I’m glad the government is taking positive steps in other ways to help drive the mass adoption of electric vehicles.   Today, I had the pleasure of taking part in some filming with the Department for Transport (DfT), for an initiative that aims to help educate the general public and build confidence that the reliable charging infrastructure needed to support the EV transition is underway. Showing all the progress that has been made and how companies like InstaVolt continue to work hard to grow the nationwide network.    Something I was particularly happy to speak to the DfT about is our new superhub currently under construction in Winchester, which will set the standard for service stations of the future. The site will combine our tap-and-go, ultra-rapid chargers, with onsite solar and battery storage, demonstrating a blueprint for a truly sustainable solution. Integrating technological innovation, such as solar and batteries, allows us to generate and store 100% renewable energy, supporting our ambition to reduce energy costs which in turn can be passed onto the consumer.   We know that making the transition to EVs both accessible and affordable is going to be key for driving mass adoption and we’re glad to be working closely with the DfT to address these issues. My thanks to the DfT team for the invite to take part and for battling the elements out on site – it was certainly a cold one. #evs #evmandate #electricvehicles #dft #charginginfrastructure

COP29 is now well underway, shining a spotlight on the global action that is necessary to combat climate change. With the decarbonisation of transport a key piece of the puzzle, it was a pleasure for myself and my team to speak with ITN Business on exactly that subject. Here is a studio interview we recently took part in that forms part of a broader programme featuring companies from across the renewables space, looking at the challenge of moving to net zero. At InstaVolt, we’ve long been committed to providing the sustainable infrastructure needed to support the transition to electric, and our network continues to grow at pace.  My thanks once again to the ITN Business team, and to Simon and Jo for getting the message across so perfectly.  #cop29 #evs #electricvehicles #evchargers #charginginfrastructure #sustainability #decarbonisation

Now that’s what you call a showstopper! These teaser shots of Jaguar’s new EV prototype wrapped in camouflage, come ahead of the model’s full reveal in early December. From 2025, JLR’s Jaguar division is going fully-electric - one of the first legacy manufacturers to do so - with JLR making a £500 million investment into its Halewood factory in the UK, as the site pivots to electric vehicle production over the coming years. This EV is one of a trio of premium Jaguar EVs set to be revealed in the near future. And we can’t wait to see them! #evs #electricvehicles #fullyelectric #JLR #jaguar #showstopper
