Received an email from Shell.. apparently they are going to install chargers at 100 Waitrose stores by 2025. The 1st will be early next year..
Each site will have 6 22kw and 2 50kw rapid chargers and be used mainly as destination chargers.
No reference to cost of charging... I guess the free 7kw chargers at some Waitrose and controlled by BP plus will disappear, like the ones that used to be at Morrisons.

Shell to install hundreds of electrical vehicle charging points at Waitrose stores by 2025 as part of expanded partnership

Up to 800 Shell electric vehicle charging points to be installed in as many as 100 Waitrose shops across the UK by 2025.

Waitrose are the most useless of the lot. They've done nothing about charging for years and taking 4 years to get chargers in place seems glacial.

The polar at Lichfield Waitrose has been broken for a year and was going to be replaced 'soon' and then it won't even be repaired and BP will do nothing as they've lost the contract so who knows how long it will be before a working charger is there.
