When you're on the go you could use the public Rapid (43kW to 50kW) chargers available across Northern Ireland, which can be easily found using Zap Maps (https://www.zap-map.com/live/).
Additionally you could use a Fast (7kW to 22kW) charger which can be installed at home or found in many public and workplace car parks.
Or you could use a Slow (3.7kW) charger through a domestic 3-pin plug socket, however this method is the lowest way to charge an electric vehicle.
