The brief

As part of Islington Council's commitment to improving air quality and achieving Net Zero Carbon by 2030, the Council will electrify its fleet of vehicles, including HGVs.

This procurement exercise seeks contractors to design and install the upgraded electrical infrastructure that will in turn enable charge points to be installed as required by the growing EV fleet.

A single contractor will be procured for this undertaking at the Council's Waste and Recycling Centre (WRC) site.

The design and installation will involve complex electrical works that need to be carried out by qualified persons with knowledge and expertise of this type of works.

On behalf of Islington Council, the Central London Sub-Regional Transport Partnership in 2019 commissioned UKPN Services to scope the electrification works required based on the borough's ambitions to scale up its EV fleet.

This scoping document forms the technical basis for this project and provides an indicative approach to its delivery.
