We've used the 150kw at Ballinalack twice over the past couple of days, all good. Tried using the 50kw last night which tried to connect then gave a red light on the charger and then disconnected but the people using the 150kw were just plugging out so we used that instead and didn't investigate any further. It's probably fine.

New 50kW charger by easygo

The latest 50kW DC Charger to go live on EasyGo is at SuperValu Ireland, Loughrea, Co. Galway. Photos and location on plugshare and easygo app.

zg3409 · 27-09-2021 2:09pm

ESB app says this site is now up and running as of today, but may not be, may still be testing. It's somewhat close to the Dublin Sligo road near kinnegad, but easygo mullingar is less off the main road. I would expect this site to be relatively quiet as a result of the location away from National routes.

No picture but there are two new 150KW high power units installed in the new N17 Supermacs Plaza in Tuam, Co. Galway.

They are installed sideways like the new unit in J14 so I guess two connectors on each side of each unit.

All the on-street charge points on Three Rock Road in Sandyford, Dublin have been marked off and painted bright green. They’re also adorned with an EV logo and (poorly chosen) Electric Vehicle Parking text. Considering how busy on-street parking in the business park is, the only occupied EV space is by a car that is a charging which is great to see, no ICEing in sight.

miamee · 10-12-2021 6:13am

Not a new location but the new chargers at Blanchardstown shopping centre are up and running. A high powered charger (150kw CCS plus a Chademo) and a triple head (50kw CCS).
