This initiative, part of the Kirklees Innovative EV Programme, is funded through City Region Sustainable Transport Settlements and aims to install innovative on-street EV charge point solutions and operate a community-based electric vehicle car club trial. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with an allocated budget of £3,000,000. Key dates include the closing date for market engagement, which is set for 17:00 on 7th February 2025, and the contract period is projected to start on 1st September 2025 and end on 1st February 2027. The project location is in Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom, and the procurement method will be an open procedure above the threshold. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in electric vehicle infrastructure and sustainable transport solutions. Companies with expertise in turnkey installation, 24/7 operational management, and maintenance of public EV charging networks would be well-suited to compete for this contract. SMEs are encouraged to participate, as the procurement process considers their suitability. Engaging in this project could provide substantial business growth by aligning with government priorities on sustainable transport and establishing a strong presence in the burgeoning EV market. Businesses can gather more information and participate through the YorTender platform. ## Notice Kirklees Council are undertaking a programme (Kirklees Innovative EV Programme) through City Region Sustainable Transport Settlements (CRSTS) funding with two core elements: (1) A trial of innovative on-street residential EV charge point solutions, attentive to the contextual challenges of such infrastructure provision in Kirklees (e.g. terraced housing and lack of council land/highway space for provision). (2) A community-based electric vehicle car club-style trial for residents and businesses to address barriers to adoption, enabling behavioural change and facilitating EV transition. The whole programme is approximately PS3m. We are unable to determine yet the proportion of each element. This pre-market engagement focuses upon the need for trialling a range of innovative on-street Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure as part of the programme. It seeks to gain logistical understandings of potential operation from suppliers, as well as indicative cost estimates Kirklees Council is seeking a partner/s that can deliver a publicly accessible trail infrastructure provision with the partner predominately responsible for turnkey installation and operation, as well as providing an on-going 24/7 service (including the management of payments and support), maintenance and repair to ensure the network is always fully operational.
