Notice Title

EV Infrastructure Provider/Operator at Pentre Awel, Llanelli

Notice Description

Carmarthenshire County Council is leading a 'once in a generation' health, wellbeing and life sciences development in south Llanelli, Carmarthenshire (Pentre Awel) that will create new state of the art infrastructure across four zones. The first phase (Zone 1) comprises 96mGBP of public sector investment to co-locate business, research, education, leisure centre, healthcare and cafe facilities in a unique 20,000m2 building. It will bring together private sector, public sector, universities, colleges, schools, residents, community and third sector, creating around 1,800 jobs and providing a range of training opportunities. Future phases include assisted living, nursing and extra care, hotel and housing. For further information on Zone 1 and future phases, please visit our website: https://www.carmarthenshire.gov.wales/home/business/development-and-investment/pentre-awel/ The Council are seeking to partner with an EV infrastructure provider/operator at the Pentre Awel site in Llanelli, to provide relevant EV infrastructure that reflects the overall development. Discussions held with National Grid (NG) and the onsite electrical engineering team have confirmed an available overall capacity of 800mVa. It is expected that the contractor will pay for and own the hardware they install. The contractor will put forward a mix of chargers (in terms of speed - fast, rapid and ultra rapid) that would create a blend of infrastructure to support the users and visitors of the Pentre Awel site. Survey data will be made available to the successful Contractor to allow them to design prior to visiting the site. All ducting (for up to 30 spaces) and installation of the feeder pillar has already taken place. The chargepoints must not incur any additional ongoing cost to the Council. The installation, operation, future upgrades and maintenance of the chargepoints and all hardware, software, metering & electricity supply, back office, payment, communication (including SIM fees), and call handling systems will be taken on by the successful Contractor. The Council seek an income via a profit share or annual lease arrangement over a 10 year agreement (that can be increased by an additional 5 years). Profit for the use of the units will be shared between the successful Contractor and the Council. Any added value that the contractor may wish to offer will be considered during the review and scoring stage of procurement. The Council are committed to enabling all residents and visitors the ability to charge their vehicles. We are focused on supporting the contractor to provide a site that will act as an exemplar to all EV users. The site must be designed to be compliant (as a minimum) with PAS 1899:2022 Electric Vehicles - Accessible Charging Specification and with the Welsh Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Standards. Anticipated access date for installation will be November/December 2024.
