WESTCharge - Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure

Description

The West of England Combined Authority (the“Authority”) has obtained Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (“LEVI”) grant funding from the Department for Transport Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (“OZEV”) which supports local authorities in England to plan and deliver charging infrastructure for residents without off-street parking. The LEVI fund has two main objectives: (1) to deliver a step-change in the deployment of local, primarily low power, on-street charging infrastructure across England; and (2) accelerate the commercialisation of, and investment in, the local charging infrastructure sector. As such, the Authority is seeking to procure the Services on behalf of the unitary authorities North Somerset Council (“NSC”) and Bath and North East Somerset Council (“B&NES”) (the “UAs”) across the UAs’ geographic areas . The Services will include (but are not limited to) provision of hardware equipment and installation, software, and associated services, to support the implementation of a regional network providing equity of provision, mainly to residents, while also supporting business and visitors (as further detailed in the Specification). The Authority is seeking proposals from suppliers for the supply, delivery, connection, commissioning, operating and maintenance of EV Charging Infrastructure , as further described in the Specification . The Concessionaire is required to be able to provide end-to-end services including, but not limited to, design, planning, pre-installation and civil engineering works, the provision of hardware, software, energy supply, customer payments and interfaces and all associated maintenance activity, improving assets with technology and regulatory advancements. The Concessionaire must be capable of delivery of all elements and have fully controlled contract management of its supply chain. The Contract will be between the Concessionaire and the Authority procuring the Services on behalf of the UAs but whereby the UAs are able to receive the benefit of the Services of the Concessionaire.
