Osprey to build Scotland’s largest ultra-rapid EV charging hub

Osprey Charging has unveiled plans to develop the largest ultra-rapid EV charging hub in Scotland.

Following the purchase of a freehold site in Paisley, the charge point operator will install 16 ultra-rapid EV chargers, with planning permission granted to install 300kW public chargepoints.

The development adds to Osprey’s growing UK charging network, with over 1,000 rapid and ultra-rapid chargers in key urban and rural locations.

Developing Scotland’s largest ultra-rapid EV charging hub

Located near Phoenix Retail Park in Paisley, the 16-charger EV hub will be just off the A737, a short drive from the M8, Scotland’s busiest motorway.

Positioned on a key route, this new Paisley super-hub offers rapid, reliable, and high-quality EV charging in a strategic location.

The Paisley hub is ideally located, offering drivers access to numerous nearby amenities while they recharge their EVs.

Growing the UK’s charging network

The Paisley ultra-rapid EV charging hub will be Osprey Charging’s second freehold site purchase, following the award-winning Salmon’s Leap hub in Devon.

Osprey plans to announce additional site acquisitions throughout the summer.

Ian Johnston, CEO of Osprey Charging, commented: “We’re hugely excited to have completed the purchase of the land for our forthcoming 16-charger ultra-rapid hub in Paisley, which marks our second freehold site in the UK.

“The purchase of freehold sites is an important strategy for Osprey, as it enables us to build larger public charging locations with greater flexibility over their design.

“This hub will be crucial in supporting the uptake of EVs in Scotland as well as in meeting the growing demand for reliable, accessible and high-quality EV charging across the UK.”
