What speed are the Be.EV chargers at White City Retail Park?

Be.EV chargers at White City Retail Park are ultra-rapid. They can deliver up to 150kW of power to a car that’s charging. The amount of power your car receives while charging at a Be.EV ultra-rapid charger will depend on a few factors. 

Typically, most ‘affordable’ EVs can charge between 50kW and 100kW. In other words, your car will receive the maximum amount of power it can. 

The amount of power your car will draw from an ultra-rapid charger will also depend on how much charge your battery is already holding. As the battery becomes charged, the amount of power your car can receive decreases. When your car’s battery reaches 80%, the amount of power your car can draw from a charger declines significantly – which is why charging between 80-100% feels a lot slower! 

We recommend keeping your electric car running between 20% and 80% to maintain the health of its battery – and keep chargers available for those who need them. 

What is the difference between an ultra-rapid charger, a rapid charger, a fast charger and a home charger?

Slow charging

The majority of slow charging points are rated at 3.6kW and will recharge an electric car in eight to 12 hours. This makes them suited to overnight charging, or when you’re in the office for a full day of work. A home charger will be classed as ‘slow’. 

Fast charging

Fast chargers are the most common connectors in the UK, accounting for more than half of the charging network. The majority of fast chargers are rated at between 7kW and 22kW, and will deliver a full charge in one to six hours. 

Rapid charging

Rapid chargers will provide power between 43kW and 50kW and can deliver up to 80 percent charge in 40-60 minutes.

Ultra-rapid charging

An ultra-rapid charger delivers either 100kW, 150kW or 350kW. All Be.EV chargers at White City are ultra-rapid and will deliver up to 150kW of power. This means your car will charge a car to 80% battery in under 20 minutes. 

How long will it take to charge my car?

Be.EV ultra-rapid chargers at White City Retail Park are able to charge a typical EV from 10% to 80% in just under 20 minutes.
