Domestic charge points predicted to reach 100,000 this year

Peer-to-peer charge point sharing network Bookmycharge is urging drivers to join its network as it expects the number of domestic charge points to reach 100,000 by the end of the year.

According to the firm, 7,600 domestic charge points have already been installed this year, with more than 85,000 points operating at homes across the UK. 


As a result, the company is calling for more people to join its peer-to-peer network in order to provide convenient charging options.

Jan Stannard, co-founder of Bookmycharge, said: “Our mission is help EV drivers to maximise the potential of the UK’s huge domestic charge point network.

“We want to encourage a ‘sharing economy’ approach so that the EV community has guaranteed access to the wealth of home charging locations across the country.

“Bookmycharge expects the number of domestic charge points to reach 100,000 later this year.

“So, even more homeowners will be able to travel with confidence, able to easily book and pay for a convenient charge wherever they are in the country.”
