The Limpet

• A socket (the Limpet) which the EV charging cable plugs into 
• A power and data pack, installed within a separate protective box, which delivers the charge and can host censors, such as, parking censors  

• Vulnerable electronic components are protected in the separate box 
• Ease of maintenance 
• Passive infrastructure can be activated later when demand soars without further need for disruptive construction

Our charge points are up to 7-22kWh and are classified as slow - fast chargers, they’re designed specifically for areas where dwell time is prolonged.

Slow charging places less stress on the vehicle’s battery and the electrical grid. It's also a 'quicker', more convenient way to charge if you know your dwell time is going to be significant. For example, plugging in when you get home in the evenings, going about your nightly routine, waking up in the morning with a charged car and no need to hang around waiting at a destination or fast charger.

Because we house the important parts of our system beneath the pavement, the repair times for the socket can be as quick as 24 hours.

Smart charging undertakes localised load balancing to prevent any potential overload to the electrical grid.
