Client: Connected Kerb / South Tyneside Council Car Park
Completion date: August 2024
HF divisions involved: Electrical, Green Energy

Brief project description: Our Green Energy EV Installation team recently completed another project in partnership with Connected Kerb to upgrade existing electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure for South Tyneside Council. The project involved the replacement of existing EV charge points with state-of-the-art Dual Scarab chargers, alongside upgrades to the electrical switchgear and cabling to ensure full compliance with current regulations.

The primary objectives of the project were to replace the outdated EV charge points that were originally fitted in the car park and replace them with new Dual Scarab chargers, which offer enhanced charging efficiency and user-friendly features.

We conducted a thorough upgrade of the existing electrical switchgear and cabling, ensuring that all sites met the latest regulatory standards for safety and performance, delivering a full turnkey package, encompassing planning, civil engineering, and electrical works, ensuring a seamless and efficient upgrade process from start to finish.

Project Challenges: The main challenge with this EV Charging Installation was ensuring that all upgraded installations met current electrical and safety regulations. Our teams expertise in regulatory standards was crucial in overcoming this hurdle.

The project needed to be completed with minimal disruption to the public and existing infrastructure. We coordinated with South Tyneside Council to schedule works during low-traffic periods, reducing the impact on local residents and businesses.

Working closely with Connected Kerb and South Tyneside Council, we developed a comprehensive plan that addressed the technical requirements and logistical challenges of the project.

Following installation, all new charge points and electrical systems were rigorously tested to confirm compliance with current regulations and optimal performance.
