Ubitricity UK to take over FM Conway’s SureCharge network
These charge points have been installed into lampposts across residential streets, and charge at a speed of 4.8kW. The transition began early February 2026, with all charge points expected to be rebranded to Shell Recharge within two months.
In its press release, Ubitricity writes that the transition already began in early February 2026, and that it expects all charge points to be rebranded to ‘Shell Recharge’ within two months.
Currently, Ubitricity holds the honor of being the largest charging operator in the UK. This takeover will then bring the total number of charging stations in the network to over 14,000 charge points across 30 local authorities in the UK.
“This growth to the Shell Recharge network supports our ambition to expand reliable and affordable public charging across the UK. This acquisition helps accelerate progress towards more sustainable mobility for drivers and communities,” said Alexander Reinhardt, CEO of ubitricity.
Rebecca Hatch, FM Conway Digital Urban Solutions Director added: “We are very excited to be working with Ubitricity to continue on the success of the previous 5 years since SureCharge was introduced to our London Borough clients.”
Ubitricity has been undergoing major expansion for some time now, although things have quieted down a bit since a new CEO took over at the beginning of last year. Since then, only a major investment from Birmingham was announced. Scaling has been ongoing, considering that it was only in 2023 that Ubitricity reached the 10,000 charging point milestone.
The company added that the last year was “a year of strong growth, including deployments of 2000 charge points in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, more than 500 in Waltham Forest, and 560 charge points across Birmingham.”
