If you own a business that is open to the public, for example a restaurant, hotel or garden centre, we may be able to install a charge point at your site! Your charging point would be visible on the bp pulse charging point map, letting EV drivers know where to charge and helping to increase footfall.
Not open to the public? No problem. We can install charge points at your workplace to support your employees and drivers make the EV transition. Talk to your facilities manager or get in touch with our sales team at salesdesk@bp.com
