This procurement opportunity aims to create a comprehensive network that encourages private sector investment while aligning with local priorities and the Scottish Government's vision for public EV charging. The tender, titled "Electric Vehicle Charging Structure Expansion for Falkirk and Clackmannanshire Council," is at the planning stage with key details available on the Public Contracts Scotland website. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses interested in services related to electric vehicle infrastructure development to participate. The procurement process, initiated by Falkirk Council, involves developing new commercial models to transition towards private sector investment in EV charging networks. Businesses in the services sector, particularly those focused on the energy and transportation industries, are well-suited to compete for this tender, which is expected to advance sustainable and innovative solutions for public EV charging. ## Notice The purpose of the EVIF is to enable local authorities to expand public Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure (EVCI) networks across Scotland. The vision for EVCI is a comprehensive, resilient, accessible, customer focussed network that works for everyone. The aspiration is a network that will be designed to ensure efficiencies and maximise the level of private sector investment to enable expanded public charging network opportunities, in line with both local priorities, as well as the Scottish Government's vision for public EV charging. As part of these plans, it is intended to develop new commercial models to encourage a transition away from a public EVCI network supported by government subsidy and unlock private sector investment.
