As part of the AA’s partnership with Chargemaster, the UK’s leading provider of electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, AA-rated hotels are being offered an EV charge point free of charge, including installation and maintenance.
It is the perfect time to consider having charge points at your hotel, as electric vehicle sales are continuing to rise, and they are currently around 25% higher than they were last year. There are now over 130,000 electric car drivers in the UK and this number is growing rapidly.
How can a charge point benefit my hotel?
- Increase of traffic by visitors charging their car and buying food or beverage
- Increase of traffic by visitors that plan their trips depending on where they may be able to charge their car during an overnight stay
- Improving your hotel’s green credentials
- Provide marketing opportunities
Research from Chargemaster shows that 90% of EV drivers will seek out destinations that have charging points over those that don’t.
