Centrica and Ford announced a partnership to offer new electric vehicle services in the UK and Ireland

Under the planned partnership, Ford will work exclusively with Centrica to deliver a dedicated home charging installation service and EV tariffs (supply plans) from British Gas and Bord Gáis Energy, "that will allow Ford customers to benefit from lower energy prices for overnight charging," Centrica said

Centrica will also make its installation service available to support hundreds of Ford dealerships across the UK and Ireland.

"With their scale, experience and access to the electric grid, our partnership with Centrica will enable us to offer a one-stop shop for our customers as they transition to an electrified vehicle, including exciting new vehicle options, wall box, installation service and electricity tariff," Andy Barratt, Managing Director of Ford of Britain, said

"Building on the launch of its Mobility Ventures team earlier this year, Centrica is continuing to work with other car manufacturers to support their customers and dealership networks on EV readiness, providing a one stop shop for charging solutions including charger infrastructure, energy management, financing, and optimisation," Centrica said

"The company has also expanded its digital service, Local Heroes, to offer homeowners electric vehicle (EV) charging installations while Centrica Business Solutions has launched a package of solutions for large businesses that includes new solar and battery storage facilities to help meet increased onsite power demand," Centrica said

Further details of the Centrica and Ford partnership will be announced closer to launch.
