Charge point network is changing in 2026
Charge point network is changing in 2026
We have over 120 public charging points across Edinburgh on the ChargePlace Scotland network. As our main supplier and maintenance provider no longer supports electric vehicle charging points, we are moving to the WattStop network - provided by Fuuse - throughout March.
There will be no change to our current charging point tariffs with this network change.
If you use ChargePlace Scotland, you will need to move to the WattStop network when they take over the charging points. You can continue to use ChargePlace Scotland to charge your vehicle until the charging point has changed over to WattStop.
Most of our charging points have now moved to the WattStop network. We are working to move our 50kW rapid charging points to the WattStop network and will provide updates when this is complete. Until then you can still use our 50kW charging points using the below payment methods
Ingliston and Hermiston Park and Ride sites
- 50kW rapid charging points can be used using contactless payments
Heriot Row, Fettes Avenue and East London Street
- 50kW rapid charging points can be used with a ChargePlace Scotland account or using contactless payments
What you need to do
App users
You can download the WattStop app from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store. Once you create a free account you can access our charging points.
RFID card users
Your ChargePlace Scotland RFID card will no longer work once our charging points have been moved to the WattStop network. You can still use roaming partner RFID cards. Our charging points accept
WebPay
ChargePlace Scotland’s pay-as-you-go service, WebPay, will no longer work on our charging points.
You can still pay-as-you-go once our charging points have been moved to the WattStop network by scanning the QR code on the charging points and following the instructions
Contactless payments
You can continue to use contactless payment at all our charging points that accept contactless.
