Rhug Estate, renowned for its commitment to organic farming, sustainability, and environmentally conscious practices, is taking a significant step forward in its green journey. The Estate has announced plans to install eight additional electric vehicle (EV) chargers in its car park, effectively doubling its current charging capacity and reaffirming its dedication to reducing carbon emissions and promoting sustainable transportation.
Driving Toward a Greener Future
As more visitors, customers, and staff embrace electric vehicles, Rhug Estate recognises the importance of providing accessible, reliable charging facilities. The expansion of its EV infrastructure aligns perfectly with the Estate’s overarching mission: to operate in harmony with the environment while offering premium organic products, luxury accommodations, and hospitality experiences.
The new chargers will be strategically placed to accommodate increasing demand and ensure that visitors can enjoy the estate’s offerings without concern for their vehicle’s range. With this upgrade, Rhug Estate aims to support Wales’ broader goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and fostering a sustainable future for the region.
Doubling Capacity to Meet Growing Demand
Currently, Rhug Estate has a smaller number of EV chargers, which have proven popular among eco-conscious visitors. The new installation will add eight state-of-the-art chargers, effectively doubling the estate’s existing capacity. This means more guests can charge their vehicles simultaneously, making the estate even more accessible and convenient for those traveling in electric cars.
The upgraded infrastructure will also feature fast-charging capabilities, allowing drivers to recharge their vehicles quickly and efficiently – making their visit to Rhug Estate’s more seamless and enjoyable.
Commitment to Sustainability and Innovation
Rhug Estate’s investment in EV charging infrastructure is part of its broader sustainability strategy. The Estate is committed to reducing its carbon footprint, promoting renewable energy use, and inspiring others in the agricultural and tourism sectors to follow suit.
By expanding its EV charging network, Rhug Estate supports Wales’ national ambition to become a leader in clean energy and sustainable tourism. The Estate’s ongoing efforts include harnessing renewable energy sources like solar panels and exploring innovative practices to further minimise environmental impact.
A Welcome Development for Visitors and Guests
The expanded EV charging facilities will benefit a wide range of visitors—whether they’re touring the estate, staying at the luxurious accommodation, dining at the farm-to-table restaurants, or attending events. It also reinforces Rhug Estate’s reputation as a forward-thinking, eco-friendly destination that prioritises responsible tourism and environmental stewardship.
Looking Ahead
With the installation of these additional chargers, Rhug Estate is not only enhancing its sustainability credentials but also setting a positive example for other businesses in Wales and beyond. The Estate’s proactive approach ensures that electric vehicles are supported as a vital part of the transition to a greener, cleaner future.
The new chargers are expected to be operational later this year, marking a significant milestone in Rhug Estate’s ongoing commitment to environmental innovation. Visitors can look forward to a more sustainable experience that champions Welsh natural beauty, responsible farming, and modern eco-friendly technology.
Rhug Estate continues to lead the way in sustainable tourism and organic farming—driving forward with a clear vision: a greener, cleaner Wales for generations to come.
