A cover letter submitted by CarneySweeney on behalf of Motor Fuel Group says the company aspires 'to make it as easy to charge your vehicle as refuelling with petrol or diesel'.
The application also features three jet wash bays and a substation enclosure.
The cover letter says the proposal should be 'considered positively in light of the national context and the demand for the necessary infrastructure to support electric vehicle use across the UK'.
