Centrica and Volkswagen Group have agreed to a three-year partnership to provide home charging hardware solutions for new EV owners.

Centrica, exclusively through its British Gas brand, has been selected to install home charging stations and provide aftersales services to Volkswagen Group customers across the U.K.

The partnership supports the rollout of Volkswagen Group’s 80 electric and plug-in hybrid models and sales of up to 3 million all-electric cars a year by 2025, the companies said

The deal will see Volkswagen’s Elli subsidiary, the central provider of charging hardware and related services for the main Volkswagen Group, work exclusively with British Gas to deliver a package of home charging installations, aftersales services and preparatory electrical upgrades across the U.K., across the Volkswagen, SEAT, ŠKODA and Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles brands, with plans for Audi to join later this year.
