ALDI’s initiative aims to support the Government’s National EV Charging Infrastructure Strategy, which prioritises the delivery of rapid charge points over the next five years to facilitate the Government’s target of having almost a million EVs on Irish roads by 2030.

By increasing our EV charging offering across our Kerry stores, our aim is to support customers in making environmentally friendly choices so that together we can work towards a greener future.”
