RHS Garden Wisley opens 32 bay charging hub with RAW Charging, free sessions 24 to 28 August 2026
By Eve
RHS Garden Wisley in Surrey has launched a 32 bay EV charging hub with RAW Charging, comprising 24 fast chargers up to 22kW and eight rapid chargers up to 50kW. The site will offer free charging from 24 to 28 August 2026 and forms part of a 90 bay rollout across five RHS gardens supporting the charity's climate positive target by 2030. Located near M25 Junction 10, the hub is described as one of the largest destination charging sites in the Guildford and Wisley area.
Why it matters: The 32 bay installation demonstrates how visitor attractions can anchor substantial charging infrastructure, with the dwell time model (fast chargers for multi hour garden visits) offering a template for leisure and heritage site procurement. The 90 bay RHS portfolio with RAW Charging signals growing opportunities for CPOs to secure anchor tenant contracts tied to corporate sustainability commitments.
