Osprey Charging has installed eight high-powered EV chargers in Nottinghamshire.
They’ve been installed at the Gamston Lock pub and restaurant in Gamston, Nottinghamshire.
The hub is the latest location built with long-term partner Marston’s. Osprey has installed and now operate rapid charge points at over 150 Marston’s locations.
The 300kW rapid charge points are compatible with every EV on the market today and can typically add 100 miles of range in just 10-25 minutes, depending on the model of the vehicle and its battery. Situated next to a restaurant, the chargers are an ideal place to charge an EV.
The chargers are easy to use and designed with simple payment for drivers, accepting contactless bank cards, Apple/Google Pay, the Osprey App and RFID card payments as well as payments through all major third-party payment methods including fleet cards.
Access to charging is one of the biggest barriers to EV adoption and the installation is expected to encourage EV uptake in the area, bolstering the UK’s national charging infrastructure as well as improving local air quality, reducing noise pollution and supporting local decarbonisation efforts.

Ian Johnston, CEO of Osprey Charging, said: “We’re delighted to open another large hub with Marston’s; over the years their welcoming pubs and restaurants have become well-known and popular charge stops for EV drivers. The electric transition is well underway and we’re here to provide a reliable and rapid public charging service for drivers, from Cornwall to Scottish Highlands. Each of our new locations is carefully designed to maximise space, accessibility and availability of chargers, working to the latest and highest standards. This new charging site at the Gamston Lock pub and restaurant near Nottingham is a vital part of the re-charging network that will enable the decarbonisation of transport in the UK.”
Andy Kershaw for Marston’s added: “We are delighted to add the Gamston Lock to our growing network of Rapid EV Chargers. Marston’s now has one of the biggest independent Rapid EV charger networks in the UK. Every week we see an increase in use demonstrating the growing demand across the country, they are a great addition for our customers who can enjoy and bite to eat or a drink whilst their batteries are charging.”
Osprey charging locations are consistently scored highly for safety and accessibility by independent inspection body ChargeSafe, and Osprey is in the Top 3 UK Chargepoint Network Operators for both personal safety and accessibility.
