Recharge is a regional network of EV charge points covering the Liverpool City Region, operated by Charge Your Car on behalf of Merseytravel.
Those who want to join the network need to sign up with an account before they can access Recharge charge points. Once registration is complete, points can be operated via RFID card or smartphone app.
Recharge points are free to use after the annual £20 cost for the RFID card, and the £1 connection fee that is applied each time a network member begins a charge.
