## Summary

Places for London Limited, a subsidiary of Transport for London (TfL), has completed a procurement process to appoint a Joint Venture (JV) partner for the project titled "Electric Vehicle Charging Hubs Joint Venture" under the Vehicle Refuelling Services category. The procurement, classified under CPV code 63712600, involved designing, building, operating, and maintaining up to five Electric Vehicle Charging Hubs initially, with an ambition to scale to 65 sites.

Key details include the use of TfL land to develop EV charging infrastructure to aid London's transition to a net-zero carbon city.
