ScottishPower requires to lease your land for at least a 10-year period. Maintenance of the chargers is the responsibility of ScottishPower for the duration of the lease.

Our EV chargers would remain on the original site and continue to operate as per the terms agreed. Our lease on the site is for 10 years and all rights, terms and responsibilities would transfer to the new occupier/landlord/landowner.

This depends on how many charging points will be installed and the unique characteristics of the location. We will work with you to determine a suitable programme for the installation with minimal disruption.

This is determined by several factors (e.g. location, passing traffic, accessibility, local amenities, footfall). The number of chargers is decided by ScottishPower and the charger speed can range from 7kW to 150kW. If you’re looking for an EV charging solution but not sure what you need, simply get in touch and our experts can help you navigate the EV charging options to find the best solution for you.

Public chargers are designed to be used by anyone, therefore the location of the charger must be accessible to the public. We will work with you to determine the best location on your premises. The chargers are enabled and controlled via the ScottishPower Recharge App.

Our chargers are easy to use; simply download the ScottishPower Recharge app, plug in, charge and pay. The ScottishPower Recharge App is the easiest way for customers to locate a charge point, charge, pay and track their usage. Following a simple sign-up process, including registration of their card details, the customer can then use any charge point in our network.

Alternatively, if customers don't want to access the charge point via the app, they can scan the QR code on the charge point, select the charger by tapping 'select' and add their payment method to begin charging instead. For chargers over 7kW, contactless terminals will be activated to allow users to 'tap and go’.

The cost for the charging session will always be visible on the charge point display and in the app. We monitor our rates to make sure they are competitive.

No, ScottishPower believe you should only pay for what you use. We do not penalise vehicles with smaller batteries or those seeking a quick top-up.
