Opportunities in Electric Vehicle Charging Development
1/5 Introduction
Environmentalism is powering the decarbonized built environment of the future.
In light of this, the UK is will ban the sale of all new petrol and diesel powered cars in 2030.
Major technological advances in battery technology has enabled the production of electric vehicles (EVs) which are cost and range competitive with internal combustion engine vehicles.
EVs have become the zero-emission vehicle of choice for manufacturers and consumers alike.
2/5 The rise of the EV
UK is now experiencing a masse transition to EVs.
In January 2019 there were 180,000 EVs on the road in the UK. As of July 2022, there are more than 470,000 EVs on the road in the UK.
This is resulting in a huge demand for EV charging infrastructure.
Where internal combustion engine vehicles can only refuel at petrol filling stations, EVs could potentially refuel anywhere with a parking space and an electricity supply.

For EV consumers who have access to charging at home, it is likely that up to 90% of their vehicle refuelling will be done there.
43% of UK car owners do not have access to private charging and will be heavily reliant on publicly available EV charging facilities at destinations such as offices, retail and public parking, or at on-the-go rapid charging facilities on the strategic road network.
This presents an opportunity to landowners with parking facilities to become an EV charging provider.
Because all charging facilities are located using app-based tools, locations do not necessarily need to be highly visible but within 1-2 mins of the strategic road network.
3/5 Opportunities for Monetisation
Leasehold disposal to an EV charging developer, in exchange for an annual rent or revenue share
