We’re working in partnership with Kent County Council to deliver more electric vehicle charging points in our car parks across the borough. Connected Kerb are supplying, installing, and maintaining these chargers. This forms part of the Councils Climate change strategy and action plan.
You can charge your electric vehicle at the following council car parks:

As there is currently no industry agreed categorisation for charger speed this is displayed as the maximum kW. kW data is supplied by Connected Kerb.
Who can use them?
Anyone can use these chargers when charging their electric vehicle. They are provided on a first come first served basis.
How much is it to charge an electric vehicle in these bays?
You will need to pay for both:
- charging your vehicle. Although you can pay for charging your vehicle with other companies, they may add additional costs.
- parking in our car park while using the charger, when parking charges apply. Payment can be made by cash using our ticket machines or using RingGo cashless parking service.
Will there be more chargers in our other car parks?
The following car parks are due to have chargers.
