You asked, we listened. You can now charge your electric vehicles whilst visiting Folly Farm!
As a result of guest feedback as well as our ongoing commitment to sustainable practice, we have now installed a number of electric vehicle (EV) charging units, located in our main car park. Perfect for giving your vehicle a top-up charge whilst visiting Folly Farm for the day! And guests staying at our Holiday Park can make use of them overnight when the attraction is closed ready to explore our beautiful county. Win win!
We have six double sided Pod Point units, so 12 standard socket chargers in total, each with a 7kW output. These are available to all guests at 45p per kWh. You will need to bring your own charging cable and confirm your charge via the Pod Point website or app.
The units are located in our main car park along the hedgerow to the left of the Holiday Park entrance.
[Pullout] “We’re confident that these EV charging units will be a helpful addition for our guests when planning their journey to us. It also allows us to take another step towards sustainable practice and highlights our Green Key messaging.” – Jack Gradidge, Conservation Officer [/Pullout]
[Pullout] “It’s not usually necessary to fully charge your battery at your destination, but frequent top-ups mean that you don’t run low or have to wait while your battery recharges from empty. Destination charging stations usually offer 7kW charging, giving 20-30 miles of range per hour plugged in for full battery electric vehicles (BEVs). You can use the Pod Point map to find destinations that offer charging stations. It lets you see live availability of charge points and control your charge events on the Pod Point Network.” – Pod Point [/Pullout]
