Ohme is new home charging partner for Bells Motor Group

Award-winning, dynamic smart-charging company Ohme is the new official home charging partner for Bells Motor Group.

The agreement will see Bells Motor Group recommending Ohme chargers for all of its new and used electrified vehicle sales with an Ohme Home Pro charger in showrooms for customers to view.

Established in 1967 and family-owned for three generations, Bells Motor Group covers franchises from Kia and Volvo across Northamptonshire and Bedfordshire and is at the forefront of the switch to e-mobility with a 200kW DC fast charger and 16 AC chargers at each of its sites.

“We are delighted to be partnering with Ohme as our preferred EV home charging supplier,” said Clive Bell, Managing Director of Bells Motor Group. “It was clear to us that Ohme’s smart charging capability, award-winning products and excellent customer service made it the obvious choice for Bells Motor Group. With increasing numbers of customers considering electric vehicles, we’re looking forward to recommending Ohme’s smart chargers.”

Ohme’s dynamic smart chargers can connect with the grid in real time, automatically adjusting to optimise the cost of charging and accessing all the times of the smartest, greenest and lowest cost energy tariffs. Ohme also offers drivers the option to charge their car when renewable energy generation on the National Grid is at its highest, further lowering their CO₂ impact.

“Ohme is the fastest-growing home EV charging company in the UK, so this is a natural partnership with the superb Bells Motor Group,” said David Watson, CEO at Ohme. “With Bells in the top 25% of UK retailers for EV sales, it’s a retailer group that is clearly driving forward the transition to EV motoring, so we’re really look forward to working with them.”

A full charge on an all-electric Volvo EX30 Extended Range 69kWh with an Ohme charger on a smart off-peak tariff, such as Intelligent Octopus Go, could cost just £5.18 for a driving range of 295 miles (WLTP).

Ohme also offers drivers the option to charge their car when renewable energy generation on the National Grid is at its highest, further lowering their CO2 impact. Ohme is the official charger provider for Motability Operations, the largest fleet operator in the UK, as well as the NHS and has just been named as the Best Electric Charging Point Provider by Business Motoring.
