GRIDSERVE Electric Highway: your weekly update on upgrades

This article is updated weekly with the latest information on each new Electric Highway site that we have upgraded.

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that we have now acquired the Electric Highway in full and are moving at pace to upgrade and enhance the network nationwide.

The Electric Highway is the most highly trafficked EV network in the UK and this is a responsibility we take very seriously. We understand what this network means to the people who use it and how it affects their everyday lives. As we turbo charge the development of upgrading this critical infrastructure, we recognise that communication is key.

There has been a lot of discussion online about this and we’re super proud to share with you what we have already achieved across the network and what we plan on to do. Every week we will update this blog to include the new sites upgraded, what is available at those sites.
