Tender information last checkedLast checked 30 Sept 2026, 22:52.

Opportunity overview

Essex County Council ('the Authority') have been pre-allocated £8,382,000 under the Local Electric Vehicle (LEVI) fund, which aims to increase the number of on-street low-powered charge points in residential areas, accelerating the commercialisation of Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Infrastructure across the County. The Authority requires Service Providers for four concession contracts to install, manage, maintain, and replace as required, Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment. We require three different technology types: Street Furniture Charge Points (minimum 1 Socket), Multi-Socket Street Furniture Charge Points (minimum 2 Sockets), and 'Flush to the Floor' Charge Points (minimum 1 Socket). The outcome of these four contracts shall be to establish an integrated EV Charge Point network across Essex, constituted of a cumulative minimum of 5,000 Installed and Operational Sockets available for public use, particularly designed for the needs of Users without access to off-street parking. The Agreement Term for these Contracts will be 15 Year(s), with the option to extend once for a period of 12 Month(s).
