Some information I've copied over from the Scottish EV Facebook group: A new rapid charger has arrived at the Broomhill Road car park. Due to technical issues it isn't live yet, the contractor is returning in the first week of October to get it up and running. This is a rapid triple charger able to supply 50kW DC and 43kW AC and to downrate to supply 25kW to each side if two cars charge at once. It will be on the CYC network, free to use for the time being.

Note the petrol generator in the picture. I wonder if this will be used to run the charger and preserve Aberdeen's reputation as Oil Capital of Europe

Apparently this charger is getting a canopy - posh!

I wonder if it will work with Scottish rain (i.e. horizontal)?

If it's like the one at The Green Welly in Tyndrum it will survive ...

Is the rapid waiting for a bus? Looks odd.

@Robthebank Yeah, an Electric bus

There's even a slide door on it. Most pampered CP I've seen

The rapids in Blackpool apparently suffered from the salt water blown on to them. May be why the canopy is there?
