Electric Vehicle Charging

Tender description

In November 2018, the Council adopted the Telford & Wrekin Ultra-low Emission Vehicle Strategy, which recognises the significant benefits of ultra-low emission vehicles (ULEV), particularly in relation to air quality and public health. Whilst the expectation is that most ULEV owners will choose to charge at home, we want to see a coordinated network of charging points that will give residents and visitors the confidence to use ULEVs in Telford, as well as encourage the uptake of ULEV vehicles and respond to the increasing demand for public electric vehicle chargepoints. The Council is seeking to engage with suppliers/agents to understand what options are available from an infrastructure and operational perspective, especially with regard to future proofing and minimising the risk to the Council.
