What is being bought

The UK Government’s Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) fund supports local authorities in England to work with the chargepoint industry, to improve the roll out and commercialisation of local charging infrastructure. These public chargepoints will help residents who don’t have access to off-street parking and need to charge their electric vehicles (EVs). The LEVI Capital fund aims to: - deliver a step-change in the deployment of local, primarily low power, on-street charging infrastructure across England - accelerate the commercialisation of, and investment in, the local charging infrastructure sector West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) on behalf of the 7 constituent Local Authority (LA) areas of the West Midlands are seeking providers of Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (EVI) to deliver and manage a range of EVI solutions that will support its residents without the ability to charge off-street at home from their own residential electricity supply. WMCA intends to enter into Concession Contracts with Charge Point Operators (CPOs) or other parties that will fund and deliver the required services, namely a network of publicly accessible electric vehicle charging spaces that meet the needs of local residents and demonstrably support the WMCA’s and constituent LAs’ EVI strategies, in-line with the requirements of the LEVI funding.

    "description": "The UK Government’s Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) fund supports local authorities in England to work with the chargepoint industry, to improve the roll out and commercialisation of local charging infrastructure. These public chargepoints will help residents who don’t have access to off-street parking and need to charge their electric vehicles (EVs). The LEVI Capital fund aims to:\n- deliver a step-change in the deployment of local, primarily low power, on-street charging infrastructure across England\n- accelerate the commercialisation of, and investment in, the local charging infrastructure sector\nWest Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) on behalf of the 7 constituent Local Authority (LA) areas of the West Midlands are seeking providers of Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (EVI) to deliver and manage a range of EVI solutions that will support its residents without the ability to charge off-street at home from their own residential electricity supply.\nWMCA intends to enter into Concession Contracts with Charge Point Operators (CPOs) or other parties that will fund and deliver the required services, namely a network of publicly accessible electric vehicle charging spaces that meet the needs of local residents and demonstrably support the WMCA’s and constituent LAs’ EVI strategies, in-line with the requirements of the LEVI funding.",

These public chargepoints will help residents who don’t have access to off-street parking and need to charge their electric vehicles (EVs). The LEVI Capital fund aims to:\n- deliver a step-change in the deployment of local, primarily low power, on-street charging infrastructure across England\n- accelerate the commercialisation of, and investment in, the local charging infrastructure sector\nWest Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) on behalf of the 7 constituent Local Authority (LA) areas of the West Midlands are seeking providers of Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (EVI) to deliver and manage a range of EVI solutions that will support its residents without the ability to charge off-street at home from their own residential electricity supply.\nWMCA intends to enter into Concession Contracts with Charge Point Operators (CPOs) or other parties that will fund and deliver the required services, namely a network of publicly accessible electric vehicle charging spaces that meet the needs of local residents and demonstrably support the WMCA’s and constituent LAs’ EVI strategies, in-line with the requirements of the LEVI funding.",

    "description": "The UK Government's Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) fund supports local authorities in England to work with the chargepoint industry, to improve the roll out and commercialisation of local charging infrastructure. These public chargepoints will help residents who don't have access to off-street parking and need to charge their electric vehicles (EVs). The LEVI Capital fund aims to:\n- deliver a step-change in the deployment of local, primarily low power, on-street charging infrastructure across England\n- accelerate the commercialisation of, and investment in, the local charging infrastructure sector\nWest Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) on behalf of the 7 constituent Local Authority (LA) areas of the West Midlands are seeking providers of Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (EVI) to deliver and manage a range of EVI solutions that will support its residents without the ability to charge off-street at home from their own residential electricity supply.\nWMCA intends to enter into Concession Contracts with Charge Point Operators (CPOs) or other parties that will fund and deliver the required services, namely a network of publicly accessible electric vehicle charging spaces that meet the needs of local residents and demonstrably support the WMCA's and constituent LAs' EVI strategies, in-line with the requirements of the LEVI funding.",

These public chargepoints will help residents who don’t have access to off-street parking and need to charge their electric vehicles (EVs). The LEVI Capital fund aims to:\n- deliver a step-change in the deployment of local, primarily low power, on-street charging infrastructure across England\n- accelerate the commercialisation of, and investment in, the local charging infrastructure sector\nWest Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) on behalf of the 7 constituent Local Authority (LA) areas of the West Midlands are seeking providers of Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (EVI) to deliver and manage a range of EVI solutions that will support its residents without the ability to charge off-street at home from their own residential electricity supply.\nWMCA intends to enter into Concession Contracts with Charge Point Operators (CPOs) or other parties that will fund and deliver the required services, namely a network of publicly accessible electric vehicle charging spaces that meet the needs of local residents and demonstrably support the WMCA’s and constituent LAs’ EVI strategies, in-line with the requirements of the LEVI funding.",

    "description": "The UK Government's Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) has introduced the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) fund which will support Local Authorities (LAs) in England in working with the chargepoint industry to improve the roll out and commercialisation of local charging infrastructure. This infrastructure will primarily be used to help residents without off-street parking to access affordable and reliable electric vehicle (EV) chargepoints. The LEVI Capital fund aims to: \n- Deliver a step-change in the deployment of local, primarily low power, on-street charging infrastructure across England; and \n- Accelerate the commercialisation of, and investment in, the local charging infrastructure sector  \nWest Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA), as a Tier 1 authority, has been allocated £14.55m of funding and are in Tranche 1 of the LEVI Capital Fund application process. As a result, WMCA are now seeking to secure investment from the market to deliver and manage Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (EVI) across the region through a concession arrangement.   \nWMCA on behalf of Transport for West Midlands (TfWM) and the 7 Constituent Local Authorities of the West Midlands (Birmingham City Council, Coventry City Council, Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council, Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council, Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council, Walsall Metropolitan Borough Council and City of Wolverhampton Council) are seeking Concessionaires of EVI to install and operate a range of EVI solutions that will support its residents who don't have the ability to charge off-street from their own residential electricity supply at home. \nThe Authority intend to enter into Concession Contracts with the successful Charge Point Operators (CPOs) to fund and deliver the required services for a 15-year duration (until 2041), with 2 x 12-month optional extension periods. The CPOs, in so doing, will accept the commercial, regulatory and technological obsolescence risks and opportunities of operating, throughout the contract duration, a network of publicly accessible electric vehicle charging spaces that meet the needs of local residents and demonstrably support the Authorities' EVI strategies. \nEVI may be located on any suitable Public Premises, including but not limited to public highway, subject to locally required licenses and/or leases as appropriate. Public Premises for the purposes of this contract means land owned, leased or otherwise from whatsoever cause under the management, control or possession of the Authority or other Public Sector Organisation.",
    "riskDetails": "Risk: LA partner deciding to withdraw from programme. \nImpact: Change to geographical spread of chargepoints installed across the region, which could affect concessionaire's commercial model. \nRisk: Changes to National Grid capacity and/or costs \nImpact: Reduction in number of chargepoints installed during delivery period and increased value of funding required per chargepoint \nRisk: Escalation of international conflicts / Increase of trade tariffs / Emergence of Epidemic/Pandemic \nImpact: Significant rise in costs or lack of availability of equipment and materials",

    "description": "The UK Government’s Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) fund supports local authorities in England to work with the chargepoint industry, to improve the roll out and commercialisation of local charging infrastructure. These public chargepoints will help residents who don’t have access to off-street parking and need to charge their electric vehicles (EVs). The LEVI Capital fund aims to:\n- deliver a step-change in the deployment of local, primarily low power, on-street charging infrastructure across England\n- accelerate the commercialisation of, and investment in, the local charging infrastructure sector\nWest Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) on behalf of the 7 constituent Local Authority (LA) areas of the West Midlands are seeking providers of Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (EVI) to deliver and manage a range of EVI solutions that will support its residents without the ability to charge off-street at home from their own residential electricity supply.\nWMCA intends to enter into Concession Contracts with Charge Point Operators (CPOs) or other parties that will fund and deliver the required services, namely a network of publicly accessible electric vehicle charging spaces that meet the needs of local residents and demonstrably support the WMCA’s and constituent LAs’ EVI strategies, in-line with the requirements of the LEVI funding.",

        "description": "A Prior Information Notice (PIN) was published on Find a Tender Service (FTS) on 10th September 2024 to raise awareness to the market of the upcoming procurement, invite them to a Market Engagement Event and request completion of a pre-market Questionnaire. The reference number for the PIN is ocds-h6vhtk-0499ae.\nThe pre-market Questionnaire contained 22 questions relating to Tariff Margin Caps, Inclusion of a cable management channel Lot, Lotting Structure, Partnering, Dependencies, 3rd Party Land, Sponsorship/Revenue Generation, Exclusivity and Concession Fees. The Questionnaire was issued to all suppliers who expressed an interest in the opportunity and requested completion and return by 20th September 2024. Following the deadline, 13 responses were received.\nA Market Engagement Event was held via Microsoft Teams on 24th September 2024 to provide more information to the market on the region, the funding, the opportunity and the proposed procurement process. The event also included a number of polls and a Q&A session to facilitate further feedback and input from the market.\nThe main insights gained from the engagement conducted were that the proposed lotting structure suggested by WMCA was preferential to combining Lots or seeking a single CPO to deliver the whole programme and that a cable management channel from private electricity supply hasn’t been tested using a concession model previously, however CPOs would be open to exploring a concession model. It also helped to inform the tariff margin caps, concession fees and revenue share that have been set."
