About ESB ecars
ESB ecars was established in 2010 to roll out the public charging infrastructure for electric vehicles (EVs) across Ireland and to support the introduction and demand for electric vehicles nationally.
ESB operates and maintains a growing network of 1,600 public charge points across the island of Ireland. These are available for electric vehicles and are found nationwide in locations such as motorway services, on-street, shopping centres, carparks etc.
There are currently three types of chargers on the ESB public charging network, AC (standard 22kW) and DC (Fast/Rapid 50kW - 100kW) and high power (150kW+).
In Ireland, we are currently undertaking a €20 million programme to expand and enhance the charging network across Ireland which is part funded by the Irish Government’s Climate Action Fund, to help meet the expected growth of electric vehicles in the coming years.
In Northern Ireland, we are currently undertaking a £3.27 million programme of work funded by the Levelling Up Fund (LUF) to expand and transform the public charging experience for current and future EV drivers in Northern Ireland.
In Great Britain, we operate as ESB Energy with chargers in Birmingham, London, Coventry and several Ultra-Rapid hubs across the country. For more information, visit esbenergy.co.uk/EV
