Tesla and EG Group Ink Deal to Roll Out EV Charging Stations Across UK and Europe

The Issa Brothers' EG Group to Expand Charging Network to Over 20,000 Chargers

EG Group, owned by the billionaire Issa brothers, has signed a deal with Tesla to roll out ultra-fast charging outlets for electric vehicles (EVs) across their petrol station empire in the UK and Europe.
The chargers, to be named 'Evpoint', will be able to charge about 80% of a car's battery within around 20 minutes and will be compatible with a range of EVs from many manufacturers.
The deal is part of EG Group's strategy to reach net zero by 2050 and improve the EV charging infrastructure, which has been lacking in recent years.
This is Tesla's second major deal in recent weeks, indicating a significant shift in the company's approach to its charging infrastructure.
EG Group plans to expand its charging network from over 600 chargers currently deployed to more than 20,000 chargers at its own sites over time.
