Electric vehicle (EV) campaigners have received a boost with the addition of a fast charger in the heart of West Cork, an area seen as sparse when it comes to the infrastructure needed to boost the burgeoning sector.

Scally’s SuperValu in Clonakilty has launched a rapid electric vehicle charging station, which it said will enable shoppers to charge their EV in as little as 20 minutes.
