Cornwall is the third largest unitary authority by population and a major tourist destination, with over 4 million overnight visits annually. Nearly two-thirds of residents live in rural or dispersed communities, making on-street and near-home charging essential.

Join us in shaping a cleaner, greener future for Cornwall. This is a rare opportunity to deliver a transformative EV infrastructure programme that supports residents, visitors, and businesses while contributing to national decarbonisation goals. There is a compulsory financial contribution of £60,000 from 1 April 2028, which the Service Provider agrees to pay the Authority annually for the duration of the contract. This financial contribution will be index-linked for annual increase from the anniversary of the first payment to increases in the Retail Price Index (RPI), regardless of income generated.

This opportunity includes a requirement for 2,000 Charge points to be installed, commissioned and operational by 31st December 2029, any submission which falls below this figure will be deemed non-compliant and excluded from further evaluation.
