Ohme is new home charging partner for Richmond Motor Group

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

The agreement will see the Richmond Motor Group recommending Ohme chargers for its new and used electrified vehicle sales with an Ohme charger in showrooms for customers to view.

Family owned and established in 1995, the Richmond Motor Group comprises of seven retailers in the South East across the Hyundai, MG, Suzuki, Skoda and Genesis brands. Richmond was also one of the UK’s earliest dealer groups to feature solar panels across their roofs of their larger sites, underlining their sustainability credentials.

“We are delighted to be partnering with Ohme as our preferred home EV charging supplier,” said Michael Nobes, Managing Director of Richmond 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 Richmond Motor Group. With increasing numbers of customers considering electric vehicles, we’re looking forward to recommending Ohme for our electric vehicle sales.”

Ohme’s dynamic EV chargers use live data from the grid and are compatible with the UK’s best and most affordable energy tariffs. Ohme chargers automatically adjust to optimise the cost of charging and accessing all the times of the smartest, greenest and lowest cost energy tariffs as well as featuring a solar boost function reducing reliance on the grid.

“Ohme is the largest and fastest-growing home EV charging company in the UK, so this is a natural partnership with the Richmond Motor Group,” said Peter McDonald, Ohme Mobility Director. “With Richmond’s brands boasting strong EV line ups and with its obvious commitment to sustainability, we’re looking forward to introducing their customers to the benefits of dynamic charging.”

Fully-charging an MG4 SE Long Range with an 64kWh battery using an Ohme on a dynamic EV tariff such as Intelligent Octopus Go*, could cost just £4.48 for its 281 mile WLTP range. 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 and has just won two awards from Business Motoring for Best Electric Charging Point Provider and Best Electric Van Charging Point Provider.
