The Lake District National Park Authority (LDPNA) are looking to install Electric Vehicle (EV) charge points at three of our sites.

Site 1: Head Office. Murley Moss, Oxenholme Road, Kendal, LA9 7RL
Requirement:

• 5 x double outlet 7 kw chargers (giving 10 x 7kw charging outlets in total)
• 2 x double outlet 50kw chargers (giving 4 x rapid charging outlets in total)

Site 2: Northern Office, Old Station Yard, Threlkeld, Keswick, CA12 4TT
Requirement:

• 3 x double outlet 7kw chargers (giving 6 x 7kw charging outlets in total)
• 1 x double outlet 50kw chargers (giving 2 x 50 kw charging outlets in total)


Site 3: Southern Office, Saunderpot Depot, Land Ends, Haverthwaite, LA12 8AB
Requirements:

• 3x double 7 kw (giving 6 charging outlets in total)

LDNPA are looking to update their fleet vehicles to electric vehicles (BMW i3 x 13 and Nissan eNV200 x 5) and install EV charging infrastructure at our offices. We are looking to purchase the EV chargers outright and are not looking for a company to subsidise or loan us EV chargers.

We are looking for a supplier to provide us with the EV charging equipment as well as arranging any necessary upgrades to our incoming electricity supply on our behalf.

Following discussions with our electricity network supplier, Electricity Northwest Limited (ENWL), we believe that upgrades to the existing electrical infrastructure may be required at our Head Office and the Northern Office and that two new substations are required.

Your tender should include details of any supply upgrades to be installed at each site and the costs of these. Where supply upgrades are necessary they will need to be sufficient to suitably power all the proposed charging points you are installing at the site. Your price should allow for the full costings for design, delivery and adoption by the Distribution Network Operator (DNO) of these upgrades. All such design and installation works will have to be undertaken by a suitably qualified (National Electricity Registration Scheme) NERS registered supplier chosen by you. You should provide details of your proposed contractor and confirmation of their NERS accreditation.
