Supermarket giant Tesco has announced a 'big change' is coming to 500 stores across the United Kingdom. The retailer revealed plans to bring electric charging points to its branches.
The giant expanded the UK's largest free electric vehicle charging network after usage of the points surged by 300% over the past year, reports the Echo. It unveiled its 500th charging point at Tesco Extra in Inverness.
Other areas that have benefitted from improved charging access include Southend-on-Sea, Bolton, Wirral and Port Talbot. Since the network was launched in 2019 by Tesco, Volkswagen and Pod Point, the charging points have provided more than 41 million miles of free electric driving.
