RAW Charging powers up Gallions Reach Shopping Park

RAW Charging has opened an ultra-rapid EV charging hub at Gallions Reach Shopping Park in Beckton, East London. 

Gallions Reach is home to retailers such as Next, Boots, Matalan, JD, TK Maxx, Smyths Toys, McDonalds and Tesco Extra. It offers over 2,000 free parking spaces.

The site features eight 150kW charging bays.

The addition of RAW’s ultra-rapid charging hub means EV drivers can now recharge their vehicles while enjoying a day out shopping, dining, or running errands. 

Gary Sleator, senior asset manager, Aberdeen, said: “This investment not only enhances the visitor experience but also supports our commitment to sustainability. By working with partners like RAW, we can ensure our destinations remain vibrant, accessible, and future-ready for the growing number of EV drivers.”

Jason Simpson, chief executive of RAW Charging, said: “This launch underscores RAW’s dedication to delivering the very best charging experience for EV drivers at the UK’s top retail and leisure parks. By working in partnership with leading property owners, we are helping drive the shift to zero-emission travel and making sustainable journeys more convenient for everyone. RAW will continue to expand its network, connecting even more amazing places across the country with reliable, high-speed EV charging.”
