## Summary

Liverpool City Council is in the planning phase of a significant electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure project, titled "Realizing Net Zero Liverpool - EV Charging Infrastructure." This procurement process is designed to establish EV smart charging infrastructure across various key sites, including Neesham Park, Festival Gardens, and Liverpool city centre. The target date for service commencement is 1st July 2026, and the project end date is scheduled for 30th June 2041, with potential extensions until 2044. The industry categories involved are chargers, transport equipment, electrical installation work, electricity distribution, and engineering services. Interested service providers are encouraged to express their interest by 21st January 2026, by registering their details with the designated council contacts as part of the pre-market engagement phase.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses involved in transport equipment, electrical installations, and energy distribution systems to expand their operations and innovate within the EV infrastructure space. Companies specialising in the installation of rapid and ultra-rapid EV chargers or those offering integrated engineering services may find this tender particularly beneficial. The project not only aims to develop robust EV charging facilities but also explores the use of these chargers as energy hubs for additional power demands or emergency scenarios. This invites collaboration and innovation from energy firms, engineering consultants, and technology providers looking to contribute to environmental sustainability and infrastructure enhancement in Liverpool.
