Navigating the Requirements for Electric Vehicle Charging Point (EVCP) Provision

The Brookbanks Difference / News / Navigating the Requirements for Electric Vehicle Charging Point (EVCP) Provision

Are you struggling to understand your Electric Vehicle Charging Point (EVCP) requirements?

Helpfully, the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) has released new FAQs, with some worked examples to explain!

Here at Brookbanks, we can help advise you with our bespoke Sustainability and Energy Statements that include information on EVCPs, and bring together other reports that highlight the credentials of your scheme. We’ll work closely with your planners, master planners, ecologists, and building design teams to ensure everything is properly considered.

We can also advise on electricity demand, connections, and upgrading works, using our substantial experience dealing directly with Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) and Independent Distribution Network Operators (IDNOs). We will be there every step of the way to ensure the right capacity is delivered on time and on budget.

Please contact Richard Boyle for further information.

Plus, we’ll highlight this month’s podcasts! The first explored where structural engineering and building services design overlap, and why good coordination is so important to project delivery. In episode two, Hannah Simpson, Fran Walker, and Isabelle Latuszka spoke about their early-career experiences and how diverse backgrounds add real value to projects. Below, you’ll also get to hear about some exciting awards news and an event we’re co-hosting with the LPDF in Manchester.
