    About Be.EV

    We are a public electric vehicle (EV) charging provider, with a vision to create a fair, futureproof infrastructure legacy that will sustainably accelerate the UK's EV revolution across the country.

    We operate a national network of close to 300 live chargers with an additional 1,000+ in the current pipeline. We are backed by £110million from Octopus Energy Generation, one of Europe's largest renewable energy investors, and are powered by 100% deep green energy.

    We have a uniquely community-led and customer-first approach to creating and managing high-usage, design-led and fully funded-EV charging solutions that add value to your organisation or site. Extra revenue, additional footfall, and competitor differentiation to name but a few Not only do we design, fund, build and operate our site partners' charging solutions, but we provide ongoing maintenance and support to evolve and futureproof the solution over time.

    We pride ourselves on putting the right chargers in the right places (leveraging state-of-the-art tech to assist with site selection), and in the success of our modular Charging Hub and Charging Green offerings. But most importantly we make sure the chargers work - our network currently has a 99.6% uptime/ availability record.
