Volvo, OVO, and Kaluza partner to offer ultra-low charging rates for electric car owners
Volvo Cars joins a new partnership with energy supplier OVO and tech company Kaluza. Together, they’re offering eligible Volvo EV owners access to OVO’s “Charge Anytime” add-on. This service provides one of the UK’s lowest home charging rates, allowing drivers to charge their cars for just 7p per kilowatt-hour. For Volvo drivers, that translates to about 2p per mile.
Charge Anytime automatically schedules EV charging when electricity prices and carbon emissions are at their lowest. Volvo drivers can access this discounted rate any time of day if they have an OVO account and select the Charge Anytime add-on through their Volvo Cars app. As a bonus, Volvo customers who sign up also receive a £50 credit.
Financial incentives like these are eliminating the cost barrier for many potential EV drivers. In fact, a recent survey by OVO found that over half of UK drivers consider lower running costs their primary motivation for switching to EVs. Volvo, OVO, and Kaluza hope that these low-cost charging rates will support more sustainable driving choices in the UK and beyond.
