The town of Horwich lies on the edge of the West Pennine Moors in the borough of Bolton in Greater Manchester. The town was home to the de Havilland Aircraft Company which supplied aircraft to Cobham’s Flying Circus and later manufactured variable pitch propellers for spitfires – making it a target in World War Two. Horwich is home to Middlebrook Retail and Leisure Park – the largest retail park in the UK – as well as the University of Bolton Stadium. Horwich is situated close to the motorway network with access at junction 6 of the M61 motorway.
EV Charge Point Installation In Horwich
The number of fully electric vehicles is increasing on UK roads as more drivers move away from traditional petrol and diesel cars. If you use an electric vehicle why not consider taking advantage of the government grant available for an EV charge point, which will significantly reduce installation costs. Although there are EV charging points in public locations, with an EV charging point at your home in a garage or driveway you will have hassle free charging.
What Is The OLEV Grant?
The Office For Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) is a government department that supports the growth of electric vehicles in the UK.
