Tender description

The Strategic Charging Infrastructure (SCI) programme requires specialist technical support to ensure National Highways can safely and effectively accelerate the rollout of reliable high power EV charging across the Strategic Road Network, an essential step in enabling the UK's transition to zero emission transport. The work order provides critical expertise to manage grid connection risks, assure Distribution Network Operator (DNO) designs, unblock delivery barriers at motorway service areas, and strengthen National Highways' internal capability so we can oversee complex electrical infrastructure safely and with confidence. Without this specialist support, there is a significant risk of delays to energising key sites, persistent charging "cold spots," reduced resilience for long distance EV travel, and weakened readiness to manage future government interventions, ultimately compromising public confidence, programme credibility, and safety for road users relying on dependable charging infrastructure.
