Osprey acquires land for Scotland’s biggest EV charging hub

The site is located in Paisley, Glasgow, and is set to host a total of 16 ultra-rapid chargers.

Osprey Charging  has acquired plans for a new ultra-fast 16-charger hub in Glasgow set to become the largest public ultra-rapid charging hub in Scotland when completed.

The charge point operator has completed the purchase of a freehold site in Paisley, with planning permission being granted to install 16 300kW public charge points. Located a short drive from the M8, Scotland’s busiest motorway, the site is set to be established on a key route for local drivers.

This will mark the second occasion Osprey completes the purchase of a freehold site, following the award-winning Salmon’s Leap hub in Devon, which opened last year.

“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,” explained Ian Johnston, CEO of Osprey Charging.

Osprey Charging’s network of public EV chargers continues to grow and now encompasses over 1,000 rapid and ultra-rapid chargers in key urban and rural locations across the UK.
