Morrisons in Cromer is dead last couple of visits I’ve been. It’s been only AC charging which is ok but often unreliable.

I vaguely recollect seeing on here plans for an MFG install at the Morrisons in Cromer - if so it would be great addition. Given the large up from London contingent in the area there’s no shortage of EV’s…

I know the place. Would be a good spot. Though already 4 ospreys at Fakenham. Still a surprising desert up there though.

Only 2 Ospreys at the Running Horse, Fakenham I think.

A couple of Genie points nearby at Morrisons, although according to ZapMap they appear to have been replaced by MFG.
The only time I tried them, they worked although it took a while to get them working, and then I never received a bill so got a free charge.

Yes, I think all the Morrisons chargers are switching to MFG, though they don't seem to be in a hurry over it.

I am wondering why the Fastned chargers at Barnard Castle seem to be out of order for quite a while?

Somebody crashed into them while testing their eyesight.

I think they may have been removed. Pity as while rare rapid charging for me it was the site i used most

Shame - I'd used it a couple of times in the past.

Good to see them still building more in the East. I thought they may have been satisfied to sit with Martlesham, Colchester and Basvegas.

New Fastned hub under construction near Newcastle Airport.

Turns out the hub is next to Callerton Parkway Metro station, on the western side of the railway. I'll add the planning ref in later.

An indoor charging area is a good idea for Aberdeen, where winter is always dark and often miserable. But I'm surprised they think all this will be profitable with just 6 rapids. Maybe they mean 12 vehicles can charge at a time?

Things like forecourt shops, toilets, cafes and waiting areas will become more normal once 50-rapid hubs become the norm, rather than where there are a dozen or less.

The drawings show 6 units and 12 parking spaces. Each of the 6 charging units can charge two cars at a time.
