Free EV charging on Clean Air Day offered by networks

Several electric vehicle charging networks are offering free charging today, on Clean Air Day, 21 June 2018.

Pod Point, InstaVolt, Franklin Energy, and Electric Blue are offering customers charging at no cost throughout the day. Methods vary, but users will end up with free mileage for their electric vehicle on that day.

Pod Point’s Open Charge network, for example, will bill customers the usual way but then refund with credit within a few working days.

InstaVolt’s contactless bank card access, meanwhile, will simply be set to free vend. Users will be required to tap a debit or credit card to stop and start the charge, but with no fee taken.

Chargemaster is offering 500 free miles to all new Polar Plus members that sign up on Clean Air Day. The offer is equivalent to 125 kWh of electricity, and can be claimed when using the referral code CAD18.

Clean Air Day aims to raise awareness of air pollution, with people making individual actions to lower their impact on air quality, such as leaving the car at home.
