SCOPE Ideally situated between Leeds and York and close to the A1(M), The Motorist not only offers shop, garage, café and restaurant facilities as a unique stop off or destination, it is a unique motoring themed location for weddings, corporate meetings as well as weekly car and motorbike meetings With the increase in electric vehicle adoption, and visitors wanting EV charging whilst visiting the venue, The Motorist looked to install EV chargers to meet the growing requests and demand for EV charging from visitors and wedding/corporate delegates. The location of The Motorist close to the A1(M) provided the opportunity to increase footfall to the venue with visitors needing to charge, and have the benefit of the venue available to them whilst charging. With a car park capable of accommodating 200+ vehicles, The Motorist reached out to Wattif EV to provide initial charging of 4 car park bays with a build out programme to match EV charging demand over a multi year period. The current site electrical capacity required a solution that offered charging load management, and local lighting at the charger location was of high importance to the client for a safe charging experience. In discussions with The Motorist, a shared 50/50 investment in EV charging infrastructure was their preference, on a net revenue share scheme. SOLUTION A joint venture for a multi year managed services EV charging infrastructure comprising design, installation, commissioning, service and maintenance was agreed, with 24/7 user helpline and load management services. Wattif EV would manage the tariff and pricing, as well as user registration, for both mobile App and RFID transactions. Wattif EV would manage the life cycle of the assets from design to future build out, with support from their EVSE partner, Rolec EV. The Rolec EV Quantum 22kW dual pedestals were selected for performance, built in protective earth neutral switchgear, cyber security, and local charger lighting. The installation with civils took one week from initial site access to commissioning and staff/public charging, with civil and electrical installation performed by Tech Asset Management Ltd, and site material logistics managed by Oliver Ashworth, for a quick project turn around to meet a site event booked with the need for EV charging. Wattif EV provided The Motorist with access to 4 Rolec EV chargepoints, and a services programme to operate, manage and maintain these chargers with a further roll-out programme to meet the increasing demand of EV charging. BENEFIT The Motorist benefits from offering EV charging to visitors and delegates, as well as charging for motoring events and private parties/weddings.

  • Rolec EV Supports Local College’s Low Carbon Initiative

    CASE STUDY Rolec EV Supports Local College’s Low Carbon Initiative Strategic Development Fund (SDF) The Strategic Development Fund was first introduced in 2021-22 alongside the Local Skills Improvement Plan to support the UK Government’s ‘Skills for Jobs’ initiative ‘to test a new approach to reshaping the technical skills system to better support the needs of the local labour market.’ Of the £92 million awarded to different regions of England, £2,722,906 was designated to the Greater Lincolnshire area, providing investment to institutions to aid them in creating new teaching and training provisions and update facilities to support these new Local Skills Initiative Plans. Boston College Welcoming 4,500 students to their trio of campuses annually, Boston College delivers high quality education to students throughout the Lincolnshire area. Offering more than 250 courses, up to and including university level. In 2023, Boston College is embarking on a low carbon initiative with the aim of providing practical training for students, faculty, and local businesses. This initiative prioritises education that supports sustainable technology whilst also enriching the trade-force in the local area. SCOPE As the aim of the project was to update their training facilities to provide planet-conscious teaching to students and businesses in the local area, it made sense that Boston College reached out to Rolec to support them. Also a Boston-based company, Rolec are known in the area as pioneers in low-carbon technology and have been operating in the EV industry for 15 years, and it was this experience that drew Boston College to reach out. Boston college’s proposal for the project outlined two primary initiatives. The first of which concerned encouraging staff and students to invest in greener technologies by introducing on-site electric vehicle charging. This charging network would need to provide sufficient chargepoint access to up to 4,500 students annually, as well as their new EV fleet vehicle. The college’s secondary and potentially most impactful initiative revolved around implementing robust training frameworks to educate the next generation of electrical installers. Demonstrating the practicalities of EV chargepoint installation to students at the college in an engaging and comprehensive manner and opening this information to local businesses and professionals. Equipment would be needed to support the delivery of the City & Guilds EV Installation course and facilitate hands-on teaching and learning. SOLUTION Phase One of Boston College’s low carbon initiative was the introduction of their public charging network. Rolec provided the college with dual-socketed 22kW Quantum pedestals, to be installed at their Rochford campus. To add to their chargepoint network, the college opted for a dual socketed 7.4kW SecuriCharge unit to be used for their company fleet vehicle, futureproofed to allow for growth as the EV fleet expands. To facilitate practical training, Rolec worked alongside the college to provide four 7.4kW WallPod units, used to create two bespoke student training rigs. These mobile training rigs allowed for students to gain the practical skills needed to embark on their future careers as electrical contractors and EV chargepoint installers. Rolec also supplied fully branded WallPod and Zura units for students to practice the full installation process, from unpackaging the unit all the way through to commissioning. Providing this full scope of technology means that the college will benefit from a comprehensive and robust training system that incorporates all elements of the installation and commissioning process. Benefit: Thanks to the tech provided by Rolec, Boston College was able to successfully carry out outreach to primary and secondary school students in local schools. Giving over 1000 young learners their first taste of the green tech industry and the innovation working to solidify their future on a green planet. Taster sessions have already begun for students looking to train as an EV chargepoint specialist. 68 level 2, 3 and adult learners have benefited from these sessions as the college begins to introduce the City & Guilds EV installation course. Once framework is in place to begin teaching, the course will be made available to students and lecturers and for free to local businesses. Enriching the local area with industry specific knowledge. ‘The technology we have supplied to Boston College will allow them to educate the next generation of EV chargepoint installers. Something that is paramount in creating a foundation that aims to give back to our planet whilst also benefiting the skill set of the local labour-force. We are proud that our work with Boston College has given us the unique opportunity to develop education in our local community and support the structures needed to create greener technologies in the years to come.’ – James Jarvis, Senior Business Development Manager, Rolec Services PREVIOUS NEXT Boston College
