To discover how much it will cost to charge an EV from an Evolt charge point, head to Zapmap’s Public Charging Calculator. This allows you to select any new or used plug-in vehicle, and tailor elements – such as electricity cost and charge required – for personalised results.

 

How to use Evolt Network points

Access to the Evolt charging network is made via the Evolt Network app, the Zapmap app, or by RFID card. Users register either, and payment is taken from the linked bank account after the charge. 

Some Evolt charging units feature contactless payment, which allows users to tap-and-charge using their credit/debit card.

You can use Zap-Pay to pay for your charging sessions at any Evolt Network charge points.

Zap-Pay is the simple way to pay for charging within the Zapmap app. Select the charger you'd like to use within the app (a helpful Zap-Pay will pop up in a banner) and start your charging session at the press of a button.

You can check on the status of your charge at any time to see the estimated cost and the charge time remaining. 

VAT receipts for all charging sessions are stored within the app, and can be accessed at any time to download to your device.



 

Where are Evolt Network charge points located?

All Evolt Network charge points can be found on Zapmap by using the network filter. This can be used on the desktop and mobile apps, and displays only those points operated by Evolt.

Charging types and speeds can be filtered too, showing only those points that are compatible with users’ cars.

Select 'Filters' -> 'Networks' -> 'Evolt Network' to view only Evolt Network points.

How does Evolt Network compare to other networks in terms of pricing?

Zapmap monitors the prices of charging on the public network and reports on the prices charged by the top 10* rapid charging networks. The prices are updated on a monthly basis here: Rapid Charging: Top 10 Network Pricing

The price to charge an electric vehicle (EV) on the public charging network can vary substantively, and prices are increasing due to current issues in the energy market.
Updated on a monthly basis, the Zapmap Price Index shows the difference in prices paid depending on the type of charger and will also track how this is changing over time.
