Cord Power Technologies, one of the UK’s fastest-growing EV charging companies, has been appointed by Geely Auto UK to provide home EV chargers and nationwide installation for its new electric vehicle customers.
Cord will supply its Cord Zero smart charger, along with a fully managed installation service designed to make home charging simple, fast, and stress-free. Most installations are completed in under two weeks, with every stage — from booking to activation — handled directly by Cord’s in-house team.
The Cord Zero is a compact and powerful 7.4kW charger available in both tethered and socketed formats. It offers full app control via the Cord AI platform, smart tariff compatibility (including Octopus and OVO), solar charging readiness, dynamic load balancing, and 4G/Wi-Fi connectivity. Every unit is backed by a 5-year warranty and supported by Cord’s UK-based customer care team.
James Hylton, Co-Founder of Cord Power Technologies, said:
“We’ve built Cord around the principle that EV charging should be positively easy — for drivers, dealers and manufacturers alike. We’re proud to partner with Geely Auto UK and look forward to delivering a smart, simple charging experience for their customers across the UK.”
Michael Yang, General Manager at Geely Auto UK, added:
“Geely Auto is coming to the UK not just to sell and service cars,; we want to provide a complete energy solution for our customers. Working with Cord Power Technologies means we can offer new energy vehicle solutions as a package – getting drivers on the road and giving peace of mind when it comes to charging.”
Since launching in 2023, Cord has delivered more than 5,000 home charger installations across the UK, serving customers through dealerships, leasing providers and national retailers. With its unique combination of connected hardware, intuitive software, and customer-first service, Cord is quickly becoming a go-to partner for automotive brands looking to enhance the home charging experience.
