Rapid Hub Charging

High-power, high-uptime hubs for drivers on the move.

Rapid charging hubs are the backbone of the UK's EV charging network, enabling long-distance travel and supporting drivers who can't charge at home.

CommunitEV supports landowners, forecourt operators and infrastructure developers in deploying high-power rapid charging hubs at roadside locations, service areas and urban sites.

Our focus is on reliability, uptime and driver experience – delivering hubs that drivers trust and return to, with 24/7 monitoring and proactive maintenance to ensure maximum availability.

Key Features of CommunitEV Rapid Hubs

High-Power DC Chargers

We deploy 50kW to 350kW+ DC rapid chargers, enabling drivers to add significant range in 15-30 minutes. Hardware is selected based on site characteristics, grid capacity and expected demand.

24/7 Availability and Monitoring

Round-the-clock remote monitoring ensures issues are identified and resolved quickly. Our operations team proactively manages uptime to minimise disruption for drivers.

Contactless Payment

All hubs feature contactless card readers and app-based payment options, ensuring accessibility for all drivers without requiring membership or pre-registration.

Driver-Friendly Site Design

Well-lit sites with clear signage, accessible layouts and, where applicable, amenities such as sheltered waiting areas and facilities. We design hubs that drivers want to use.

Operations & Uptime

Reliability is everything for rapid charging. Drivers depend on hubs being available when they need them, particularly on long journeys. CommunitEV's operations model is built around maximising uptime and minimising disruption.

Remote Monitoring and Diagnostics

All chargers are monitored 24/7 with real-time alerts for faults, connectivity issues or performance degradation. Our operations team can often resolve issues remotely without requiring site visits.

Proactive Maintenance

Scheduled maintenance and component replacement before failures occur, reducing unplanned downtime and extending hardware lifespan.

Rapid Response SLAs

Defined service level agreements for fault response and resolution, with prioritised callouts for high-traffic sites and critical infrastructure.

Performance Reporting

Detailed uptime reporting, usage analytics and revenue data to demonstrate performance and inform future investment decisions.
