Chargie helps EV drivers to plug in

ELECTRIC car drivers are always looking for solutions to alleviate range anxiety, and a new sharing system called Chargie could be the answer. It allows users to book EV charging at other people’s home points while the owners are out.

Chargie has expanded rapidly since its launch last month and says it’s getting interest from hotels and B&BS who hope bookable charging will allow travellers to use their business as a lunch stop. Charge point owners set their own prices. Find out more at www.chargie.net.
