E.ON has switched on the first of its UK ultra-fast electric vehicle charging points in Birmingham. 

The two charging posts are being operated in partnership with the recently opened EG Group facility built on the site of the former Armada public house, near Spaghetti Junction on the outskirts of Birmingham. 

The 175 kW charge points allow the latest electric vehicles to charge at their maximum rated speed – the new posts are capable of boosting the batteries of the latest generation of electric cars with a range of around 100 miles in just 10 minutes, says the company. 

Michael Lewis, Chief Executive of E.ON UK, said: ‘Our commitment to supply all of our residential customers with electricity backed by 100% renewable sources as standard, will ensure that any electric vehicles supplied by E.ON will be 100% clean.’
