Carmarthenshire, a largely rural and picturesque county in South West Wales, is adapting to the growing needs of electric vehicle (EV) owners by improving public charging facilities and supporting home charging solutions.

For residents in towns like Carmarthen, Llanelli, and Ammanford, where many homes feature driveways or garages, installing a home charging station is a convenient and cost-effective option. In more densely populated areas of Carmarthenshire, such as parts of Llanelli or Carmarthen town centre, where terraced houses or flats are common, many homes lack driveways or off-street parking. This makes home charging more challenging and necessitates reliance on public charging infrastructure.

Our cross-pavement channel allows residents to install a cable gully into the pavement outside their home and easily charge on the street without causing hazards, and you can save around £1,100 per year compared to using public charging.

The first two Kerbo Charge trial sites were installed on 19 September 2024, with the remaining sites expected to be completed by the end of October.

Up to 10 locations will be included in this phase of the trial, making Carmarthenshire County Council the first in Wales to carry out trials at multiple sites simultaneously. The data and feedback gathered will provide valuable insights into how scalable these solutions are for wider adoption across the county.
