EasyGo and Eir team up to charge from phone box sites


The EasyGo EV charging network is to install fast chargers in 70 locations around the country where telephone boxes are being removed, writes Brian Byrne.

The initiative is in association with Eir and will involve the installation of 200 fast charge units.

The locations are in Offaly, Mayo, Cavan, Waterford, Kilkenny, Tipperary and Monaghan, and will be rolled out over the next six months.

With one in seven cars sold this year being fully electric, the move will help deal with both range anxiety and the queuing that is becoming apparent at many charging sites.

As you’d expect from the Swedish brand. With a bit of swish added in the form of the diamond cut and black alloys. The vehicle was good enough to win Car of the Year accolades in both Europe and Japan as well as the Women’s World COTY in 2018, and the Continental Irish Car of the Year for 2019. The no nonsense ethos is also largely true for the...

The car is an 8-seat SUV designed primarily for markets where larger cars are common, in particular the US.
