I recently spent a few hours, working, at a 300 pitch site near Newquay. The owner said his price is now 50 pence a unit, he expects it to rise again before long and he has taken the decision not to allow EV charging.
He said the installation costs for a dedicated charfger were currently prohibitive.
Interestingly last week visited a “boutique” hotel in Sherborne, again for work, and they have one charger and the fee is £15.

it may be that it’s assumed people will charge overnight and the full EV in that case probably wouldn’t take much more than the PHEV given the length of time it takes to fully charge from an ordinary 240v supply.
From what I have read about EVs, my thoughts exactly.

This 'scientific' experiment by carwow might be of interest?
