EVC June Update – new EV chargers installed

[ad_1]

The first half of 2022 has seen significant growth for EVC within the industry, as they aim to become one of the largest destination EV charging networks in 2023. Already, with a network consisting of over 40 locations, EVC is ramping up its roll-out strategy as they are set to exceed 200 locations by the end of the year.

EVC’s future growth is also looking good, after securing multiple major tenders across the UK, including leading hotel portfolios and property developers. In Q2, EVC has secured an additional 6 portfolios consisting of 90 locations. They are also in the closing stages of negotiations to provide over 2,300 additional charge points to over 300 locations across the UK, which are expected to be closed in 2022.

EVC’s mission to deploy charging infrastructure on a large scale to support the hospitality and residential sectors has already proven to be successful. Many leading names in the hospitality industry including Hampton by Hilton, ibis Hotels, Holiday Inn and Best Western Hotels & Resorts already have charging facilities provided by EVC, alongside one of the UK’s largest property developers, Galliard Homes.

A recent installation conducted by EVC was for Galliard Homes. EVC holds an exclusive supplier agreement to roll-out charging infrastructure across 38 of its existing residential developments. The latest to be deployed is at New Capital Quay in London. An initial 6x 22kW charge points were installed to provide accessible charging for residents who currently own an electric vehicle, with infrastructure in place for a further 14 EV bays as more residents make the switch to an EV.

EVC also has a working relationship with supermarket chain Waitrose, and other local businesses, to provide charging facilities for its customers, staff and the wider public. This particular installation in an underground car park in central London consists of 4x 22kW charging points and will be available to use 24 hours a day. With further infrastructure for 14 EV bays as demand increases.

Throughout June, EVC has been finalising the installation of 4 new charge points for a hotel in Milton Keynes, with infrastructure for a further 16 charge points. The new chargers were a necessity for Horwood House Hotel as a growing number of hotel guests and conferences required EV charging facilities during their stay. With vast increases in electric vehicle sales so far in 2022, there is an increasing impetus on businesses ensuring they are prepared for an electric future and retaining existing business.
