## Summary

Nottinghamshire County Council, on behalf of the Second Midlands EV Infrastructure Consortium (SMeviC), is initiating a public procurement process for EV Charging Infrastructure, with an expected capital expenditure of £1.05 billion. The project aims to deliver a 50kW Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) on-street project to install approximately 65,000 local residential chargepoints across the Midlands by 2030. The consortium, which includes Derby City Council, Derbyshire County Council, Nottingham City Council, and Staffordshire County Council, is leveraging capital grant funding from the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV). The procurement process is at the tender stage, and submissions are open until 29th April 2025, with a contract start date of 1st September 2025. The EV charging infrastructure project is divided into two lots: Standard EVI (7-22kW) and Rapid EVI (50kW), with a contract duration running through to 2040. The primary procurement method is an open procedure, conducted electronically in English.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in the electric vehicle and transport equipment sectors. Suppliers with expertise in the installation and maintenance of EV infrastructure, particularly those experienced in on-street and residential settings, are well-suited to compete. The project encourages the acceleration of commercialisation and investment in local EV charging infrastructure, serving both urban and rural areas, and aiming for equitable and widespread deployment. Companies focusing on sustainable transportation solutions can benefit greatly, ensuring they contribute to meeting government objectives and regional goals for a greener future. Business participants will find this project instrumental in boosting their market presence in the growing electric vehicle infrastructure industry.
