Case Study

Project‭:‬‭ ‬BP Pulse GigahubTM‭ ‬
Location‭:‬‭ ‬NEC‭, ‬Birmingham
Client‭: ‬The EV Network
Network operator‭: ‬MUA
Timescale‭: ‬Three months

Securing the path to connection for the UK’s largest EV charging hub with 30‭ ‬ultra-fast 150kW and 150‭ ‬fast‭ ‬7kW charge points available‭, ‬enabling 180‭ ‬EVs to charge at once‭.‬

Our brief
Working with our long-standing client MUA‭, ‬we were contracted to secure land rights agreements for this groundbreaking EV charging installation‭.‬

Challenges
From a landrights point of view‭, ‬this project was relatively straightforward‭ ‬–‭ ‬the NEC was the landowner and The EV Network had already leased the land‭. ‬However‭, ‬this was a high-profile project with its schedule for opening potentially being governed by the availability of a senior member of the Royal Family‭.‬

Delivery
Communication was key to the successful delivery of this project‭, ‬with weekly calls held between our Net Zero team‭, ‬The EV Network and MUA‭.‬

And‭, ‬thanks to our bespoke licencing and wayleave process‭, ‬developed specifically for the EV market‭, ‬we were able to meet the project timescales‭, ‬successfully securing the path to connection with the National Grid‭.‬
