I don't however see it as freeloading if you do charge there. Tesco made a charger commitment commercially and must have weighed up the wider use of non Tesco customers. I shop 100% online these days with 2 deliveries a week from Tesco.
I do however put my bike in the car, put the car on charge at Tesco and have a long ride down the Thames and local country parks all off peak times.
I would have thought Tesco could have somehow used their Clubcard as a validation for charging as an active customer but chose not to.
They're part of their sustainability program, for customers: https://www.tescoplc.com/updates/2021/t ... 0-charges/
Driving to the store JUST to use them doesn't seem to be their intention.
22kW ? The massive Tesco reasonably near us has 4x 7kW points. Hardly worth the hassle of plugging in for the time you're shopping there.
