BP accelerates EV charging

DC fast charger manufacturer Tritium has signed a multi-year contract with BP for the supply of chargers and related services to support BP’s global EV charging network, with an initial order for the United Kingdom and Australian and New Zealand markets of nearly 1000 chargers.

It will help BP Pulse deliver its mission to provide fast, reliable charging for EV drivers and to accelerate the roll-out of the charging infrastructure needed as the world transitions to decarbonise road transport, says BP Pulse senior vice president Richard Bartlett.

“The electrification of transportation is entering an incredible era when major companies like BP are providing critical support to transition the world to cleaner more reliable transportation,” says Tritium chief executive Jane Hunter.

“We’re thrilled to be working with BP to create greater global access to fast charging in support of their mission to become a net zero company by 2050 and to be a leader in helping the world get to net zero emissions.”
