Good Energy offers EV drivers lowest off-peak rate

Good Energy Group PLC (AIM: GOOD), the 100% renewable electricity supplier and energy services provider has launched a new electricity tariff for EV drivers, offering the lowest off-peak rate* available on the market. Good Energy EV Charge is fixed until September 2025, and offers five hours of off-peak charging between midnight and 5am for just 6.75p per kWh.

The off-peak rate encourages customers to charge at night when demand for electricity from the grid is lowest, but like all Good Energy tariffs, it is fully backed with power procured from its community of over 2,500 renewable generators.

In addition to the low-cost off-peak rate, Good Energy EV Charge offers customers a competitive peak rate of 28.62p per kWh and additional value through a premium subscription to Zapmap. Zapmap is the UK's go-to app for public EV charging, helping drivers search, plan and pay for charging when they are on the go. The premium subscription includes advanced route planning and in-car support via Android Auto and Apple Car play.

To be eligible, customers must be on an existing Good Energy tariff - new customers can switch to the suppliers' standard tariff before moving onto the EV tariff. They must also have a working smart meter sending half hourly readings, pay via direct debit and opt for an online paperless account.

Luke Whitworth, Head of Pricing, Good Energy said: "We wanted to pull out the stops for customers with this tariff to make it as economical as possible to charge and drive an electric vehicle. Not only is it the cheapest off-peak rate on the market and a competitive peak rate, it's also the only EV tariff that comes bundled with a premium subscription to the UK's favourite public EV charging app." 

*Excluding tariffs requiring customers to purchase additional services or products such as a vehicle lease or charger installation
