Charge your car for less with our EV tariff

With our new variable-rate electric vehicle (EV) tariff, you can get five hours of cheap overnight charging for as little as 7p per kWh.

A closer look at our EV tariff rates

The off-peak rate kicks in between midnight and 5am GMT. Giving you five hours of low cost charge.

And if you take other UW services, you’ll get an even better rate to charge your EV.

1 service: 8.5p per kWh Midnight - 5am GMT
2 services: 8p per kWh Midnight - 5am GMT
3+ services: 7p per kWh Midnight - 5am GMT
