MFG EV Power has selected AMPECO’s charging management platform to run more than 2,800 charge points across over 550 sites on what it describes as the UK’s largest ultra-rapid charging network. The partnership underpins parent company Motor Fuel Group’s plan to install ultra-rapid chargers at 500 sites by the end of 2030, backed by a committed investment of more than £400 million (roughly $540 million). EV Power chose AMPECO after evaluating long-term software partners capable of matching its deployment pace and reliability standards.
Highlights
- AMPECO’s platform now manages more than 2,800 charge points across 550+ EV Power locations in the UK.
- MFG EV Power is targeting 3,000 ultra-rapid 150 kW, 300 kW and 400 kW chargers at roughly 500 sites by the end of 2030.
- MFG has committed in excess of £400 million (~$540 million) to its EV charging build-out and plans to complete the rollout to all suitable network locations by 2035.
- The migration was completed without disrupting live operations, according to AMPECO.
A Migration Built for Scale
EV Power is the charging division of Motor Fuel Group, the UK’s largest independent forecourt operator, with roughly 1,300 sites across Great Britain and a growing partnership with supermarket chain Morrisons. AMPECO’s migration team worked with EV Power to capture requirements and complete the platform cutover without disrupting live operations, according to the company.
“The EV Power brand stands for consistent, reliable, and consumer-first EV driver experience. To deliver that, we needed a partner built for growth who would understand our requirements and be able to deliver in time,” said Martin Symes, EV Director at EV Power.
EV Power treats consistency as a technical commitment, securing grid connections sized to sustain full advertised power output at every bay regardless of occupancy. Reliability is tracked daily against internal targets.
Operational Tooling for a Multi-Vendor Estate
AMPECO’s hardware-agnostic platform connects EV Power’s multi-vendor charger estate through a single operational interface. The company says real-time monitoring, automated fault detection, and remote management give the operations team network-wide visibility without adding headcount as the network scales. Configuration templates also cut commissioning time at peak deployment.
The platform serves as EV Power’s single source of truth for charge point data, replacing multiple legacy systems previously used to investigate faults or disputed sessions. That data also feeds financial planning, site selection, and utility billing verification. An open API connects charging data to EV Power’s wider technology stack.
Drivers from any connected eMSP network can authenticate and charge at EV Power hubs through OCPI (Open Charge Point Interface) connections that AMPECO develops and maintains. Compliance reporting under the UK’s Public Charge Point Regulations is fully automated through the platform.
A Reference Point: AMPECO’s Larger European Migrations
For context, Norwegian operator Wattif consolidated eight legacy platforms covering more than 35,000 charge points onto AMPECO without service disruption, scaling from a single market to six countries in three years. EV Power’s 2,800-point migration is smaller in raw count but concentrated in a single market and a higher-power tier — 150 kW to 400 kW DC ultra-rapid rather than a mixed AC/DC pan-European estate — which places different demands on grid management, session pricing, and roaming integration than a multi-country rollout.
Roadmap Velocity and 2030 Targets
AMPECO says its development velocity has grown ninefold over the past year, driven by an AI-native engineering model that ships weekly releases. The company says it can deliver against pressing operator needs in days when required.
“I looked at the release notes and was literally thinking about raising something in our next meeting, but it had already been released. AMPECO is always ahead of the curve,” said Omor Sany, Technical Operations Manager at EV Power.
That pace supports EV Power’s roadmap, which includes Plug and Charge in partnership with Hubject and battery-buffered hub designs intended to extend the network’s reach beyond current grid constraints.
“EV Power has set the standard for what ultra-rapid charging should deliver to UK drivers: consistent power output and reliability at every bay, every session. AMPECO’s role is to give them the operational foundation to sustain that standard as they scale,” said Stefan Ivanov, Chief Revenue Officer at AMPECO.
EV Power is targeting 500 hubs and 3,000 ultra-rapid chargers by 2030, with AMPECO’s platform supporting the expansion.
