I added a post in the Off-Topic Chat forum area. It's not specifically Enyaq related, but it does cover someone else's experience of using an EV in remote areas, in this case the West of Scotland.

Looking at available chargers generally seems cheaper than in England, but often relatively low charging rates and often time limited as well to 40 mins or so. Not long enough for a full charge if needed.
There's a new(ish) multicharge site on the Slateford Road. good if you are on the west side of thecity.

About using another charger to get around the 40 minute limit: using another charger worked! I had just finished charging for about 35 minutes when I was approached by two women who were down to 5% in their hired Polestar. The ChargePlaceScotland charger did not accept payment by credit card (none of the ones on Skye do) and setting up an account was not possible for them with their US bank account. So I let them use my account on the other charger, no problem. They wanted to give me £100 in cash! I said no that's far too much. We reached a compromise on £40 and I said we would buy £20 worth of food for the food bank.
