EV charging payment service Paua is now compatible with Smart Charge, the charger network run by supermarket chain Sainsbury’s.
The new agreement gives Paua users access to ultra-rapid chargers at 69 Smart Charge locations across the UK.
Smart Charge chargers use 100% renewable energy.
Paua CEO Niall Riddell said: “Smart Charge’s focus on providing accessible, high-power, renewable-powered chargers aligns perfectly with Paua’s mission to simplify the switch to electric for businesses and fleets.
“Partnering with a trusted household name like Sainsbury’s helps us offer even greater convenience to our users and makes it easier than ever for businesses to embrace sustainable transport.”
Sainsbury’s director of property, procurement and EV ventures Patrick Dunne said: “Smart Charge continues to go from strength to strength and we’re delighted to be starting 2025 with the news that Paua has chosen to collaborate with us – giving all of its customers direct access to our 24/7, convenient and reliable ultra-rapid charging hubs.
“This partnership represents another step forwards in our ambition to make EV charging simple and accessible to everyone.”
