Shirley charging site back online with CableGuard™ anti-theft technology

Located just off the A34 Stratford Road, our Shirley site in Solihull is back online after recent cable damage and is now part of InstaVolt’s growing list of sites protected by CableGuard™.

What is CableGuard™? A high-strength cable sleeve that, if interfered with, releases a forensic liquid that glows under UV light and is traceable to a specific location. This makes it a powerful deterrent and supports law enforcement in tracking and prosecuting offenders.

This charging site is now fully restored and more secure, offering the same trusted convenience EV drivers expect from InstaVolt. With on-site amenities with KFC, you can enjoy a meal while your car charges. Please note, these chargers are not 24/7 and operate from 7 am to 11 pm, during KFC opening hours.

Fighting Cable Theft Nationwide – a crime that causes inconvenience for drivers and significant repair costs for infrastructure providers we have been proactively rolling out this technology across theft-prone hotspots throughout the UK.

As the UK’s largest ultra-rapid charging network, InstaVolt remains committed to investing in innovation, security and service – ensuring drivers can rely on safe, sustainable and uninterrupted charging, wherever the road takes them.

Visit Shirley today for secure, ultra-rapid charging with the peace of mind that comes with CableGuard™ protection.
