Halton, located in Cheshire and encompassing the towns of Runcorn and Widnes, is steadily adapting to the rise in electric vehicle ownership by improving both public charging infrastructure and encouraging home charging solutions.

 For residents living in suburban areas such as Sandymoor, Moore, or Farnworth, where many homes have driveways or garages, installing a home charging point is a convenient and cost-effective solution. For those in more residential areas like Norton or Cronton, installing solar panels to power home chargers can further reduce energy costs too.

In more urban or older areas within Halton, such as the town centres of Runcorn or Widnes, terraced housing and flats are common so on-street parking is prevalent, making home charging a challenge.

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.

We kicked off a trial in Widnes in early 2024. Halton Borough Council used the Kerbo Charge 'managed service' where we organise the resident license, source a suitably qualified groundworks team, and attend for the installation. This reduces the amount of administrative work for the council but ensures they still sign off on the terms and conditions of the license and each install location. We used one of the established term maintenance contractors from nearby Liverpool City Council.

If you’d like a Kerbo Charge installation in Halton, sign up to our waiting list here and as soon as we can go ahead, we’ll immediately email you.
