  • 1620KW of charging Infrastructure Provided for First York.

    1620KW of charging Infrastructure Provided for First York. NEWS EV Charging 1620KW of charging Infrastructure Provided for First York. 12 December 2023 at 11:07:53 After announcing their electrification plans earlier this year, First York joined hands with leading EV charging solutions manufacturer, Rolec EV to ensure that the charging needs of their new electric buses were fulfilled. First York are not only the biggest bus operator in York, they are also operators of one of the largest fleets of double deck electric buses (outside of London), thus steering towards the right direction in reducing carbon emissions whilst improving air quality. In order to power the new additions to the fleet, Rolec EV’s 10 years of excellence in electric vehicle charging became the first point of call to accommodate their current and future electric buses. Rolec EV have collectively provided 1,620KW of power via 70+ charging points, including a combination of 22KW AC Type 2 charging sockets and an 80KW dual outlet DC Ultra-Fast Rapid Charger. Having this infrastructure in place allows up to 72 electric bus drivers to park and charge their vehicles overnight in unison before carrying out their journeys the following day. First York has also benefited from Rolec EV’s bespoke back-office communications service, which supplies the bus operators with smart charging capabilities of managing charging activity, history, vehicle migration and more. This particular fixture, FleetSmart, delivers analytical reports to First York headquarters, enabling bus operators to evaluate charging behaviour across their electric fleet. The government’s Net Zero initiative, reaching zero carbon emissions by 2050 is now well underway with various industries opting to future-proof their fleets. The partnership between Rolec EV and First York has come at a time where the electric vehicle industry is experiencing exceptional growth, especially for establishments who are keen to enhance their environmental efforts. Whilst this becomes a commonality amongst the vast majority, Rolec EV continues to be the focal point of discussion when it comes to providing EV charging solutions for a range of organisations. Frankie Mellon, EV Sales Manager at Rolec EV said: “We at Rolec EV are delighted to have formed a partnership with York’s largest bus operator, First York. Our bespoke EV charging solutions have always generated great feedback and this project is another addition to our portfolio, accompanying DPD, UPS, Battersea Power Station, Anglian Water and more. The installation of the AutoCharge and UFC units supply a robust and future-proof solution, allowing First York to add more electric buses to their current fleet of twenty-one in the future with their electrification plans. We are now in a society where the general public are determined to reduce their environmental impact, the transition to an electric fleet is a great move from First York to encourage passengers to better their carbon footprint and we at Rolec EV are proud to be part of that journey. We are also looking forward to the next stage of developments with First York where our back-office communications will enable bus operators to understand further insights regarding their fleet, for example the scheduled routes of the buses and whether they can complete the journey based on their current battery state, enabling the back-office system to redirect power to a vehicle that requires charging. This fully integrated solution will provide bus operators of First York with ease of mind when it comes to monitoring the whereabouts and charging requirements of their fleet.” For more information on EV Charging , click the link or visit: www.rolecserv.com/ev-charging PREVIOUS NEXT Related Posts MG on the Road to Net-Zero in Enhanced Partnership with Rolec EV.

  • Wattif Provides Funded Rolec EV Chargepoint Solutions to Mullingar Golf Club

    CASE STUDY Wattif Provides Funded Rolec EV Chargepoint Solutions to Mullingar Golf Club MULLINGAR GOLF CLUB Mullingar Golf Club is located at Belvedere, Ireland, 5km south of the town centre and just off the main N52 (Nenagh – Dundalk) route, 80km west of Dublin along the M4/N4. The course layout is the work of famous Scottish golf course designer and 5 times Open Champion James Braid (1870 – 1950). Although some changes have been made since its creation in 1935, Mullingar is essentially as its designer intended, a championship challenge set in a mature wooded parkland that was once part of the Belvedere Estate. The course runs to 6,685 yards with a classic par 72 balance of 10 par 4s, 4 par 5s and 4 par 3s. Its routing is player friendly, returning to the club house at 3, and 9. All four par 3s are feature holes, but the 209 yard second is the signature hole, with its elevated tee and green it is considered one of the best par 3s in Irish golf. SCOPE The Golf Club is situated lakeside in Mullingar, Westmeath and offers golfers and visitors a World Class golf venue. With the increase in electric vehicles adoption, and members and visitors wanting EV charging whilst playing golf or using the Club’s facilities, the Club looked to install EV chargers to meet the growing request and demand for EV charging. With a car park capable of accommodating 150+ vehicles, The Club 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’s 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. 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. The Rolec EV Quantum 22kW dual pedestals were selected for quality, performance, and aesthetics. The installation with civils took two weeks from initial site access to commissioning and staff/public charging, with civil and electrical installation performed by Ascent Energy Services. The installation took place whilst the Club remained open to members and guests, with civils and electrical connections being made whilst the Club operated, and with barriers/access managed around the operating Club’s needs. BENEFIT Wattif EV provided the Club with access to 4 Rolec EV charging sockets, 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. The back-end solution provides load management as well as demand reporting and operation features including tariff and user management, and the 24/7 support for users – allowing Mullingar Golf Club to concentrate and do what they do best – providing a World Class golfing experience and to all their members and visitors.

  • Record breaking year for electric vehicles in 2021

    Record breaking year for electric vehicles in 2021 NEWS EV Charging Record breaking year for electric vehicles in 2021 12 December 2023 at 11:08:09 2021; a challenging year for the overall automotive industry, but a prosperous year for the electric vehicle industry and alike. With hashtags such as #TheFutureIsElectric and #ElectricCarsAreTheFuture trending across social media channels; major electrification announcements at COP26; further government funding towards the UK’s charging infrastructure and mandatory charging infrastructure requirements, evidently, we are steering towards a cleaner and greener future. Sustainable travel and transport are set to be focal discussion points for the coming years, however interestingly, the significant uptake of zero-emission vehicles is already presenting the industry with direction, confidence and encouragement. Last year presented a record-breaking year for electric vehicle registrations with 190,727 BEVs, 114,55 PHEVs and 147,246 HEVs registered, equating to 27.5% of the overall vehicle market share. In fact, BEV registrations in 2021 were higher than BEV registrations from the years 2016-2020 combined! A visible paradigm shift is taking place in which drivers are choosing to electrify as opposed to continuing driving ICE vehicles; a concept that wouldn’t have crossed the minds of many decades ago. As people become more aware of the lasting implications of climate change, people are changing their daily behaviours and habits to reduce their carbon footprint. Adopting an electric vehicle plays a crucial role in preserving the environment by decreasing carbon emissions output into the atmosphere, therefore opting for a greener alternative is a no-brainer for environmentally conscious individuals. Choice of electric vehicle and plug-in models have also increased across the years, with over 40% of vehicle models now available in plug-in derivatives, meaning that drivers are provided with greater choice than ever before when it comes to making the switch. Vehicle range was previously a concern for the majority, however due to technological advancements in the motor industry, car manufacturers are able to offer electric vehicles with ranges suitable for longer journeys, thus increasing confidence. 2021 saw the likes of Mercedes-Benz, Toyota and Lexus, BMW, Volkswagen and more announce that electrification plays a significant role in their future plans, suggesting that more and more electric vehicles are set to reach the UK market within the next year and so forth. With various electric vehicle models already accessible within the UK, a further increase in choice will provide current ICE drivers with more of a reason to switch should they find their perfect match. We simply cannot discuss the rise in electric vehicles without a mention of cost savings! Although the initial outlay of opting for an electrified model may prove to be costly for some, immediately the driver can see cost savings in overall running costs. Paying less to recharge as opposed to filling up at the petrol station; government grant funding towards the purchase of an electric vehicle; government grant funding towards the purchase of an EV charging point and integrating with cheaper and greener energy tariffs all pose significant financial savings for drivers’ futures. Not to mention, company car drivers who benefit from 2% BiK (Benefit in Kind) tax. It is to no surprise that the electric vehicle market experienced its strongest year in 2021, despite the challenges and complications that the overall vehicle industry faced. With fiscal incentives in place, increased choice in vehicle models and a shift in mindset regarding the environment, it was inevitable that electric vehicles were going to experience their ‘moment.’ In our eyes, the only way is up and we are excited to be a part of the UK’s electrified journey ahead.

  • Solar EV Charging Project Saves Council £150,000 a Year

    CASE STUDY Solar EV Charging Project Saves Council £150,000 a Year THE COUNTY HALL SOLAR CARPORT, STORAGE AND EV CHARGING PROJECT Northumberland County Council has embarked on a new green technology development, aimed at reinventing urban architecture to incorporate more sustainable energy sources. Unanimously approved by members of the Castle Morpeth Local Area Committee, The County Hall Solar Carport is one of the largest in the UK. Partially funded by the England European Regional Development Fund as part of the European Structural and Investment Funds Growth Programme 2014-2020 with match-funding from the council, the solar energy generated will power EV charging infrastructure for staff and fleet vehicles and all excess will be diverted to the main building of the council headquarters. Tackling the council’s carbon emissions at the source and helping support their aim to half emissions by 2025. SCOPE Covered in an 800kW solar array and with 400kW of battery storage, the £3.8 million structure required to be completely self-reliant: producing its own energy to charge electric vehicles in parking spaces sheltered by the carport whilst also diverting the remaining energy to the council building itself. Naturally, this means the charging network would need to be compatible with solar charging. Furthermore, located outside of the Castle Morpeth County Hall, charge point infrastructure would need to be established to support the charging of all staff and fleet vehicles entering the site. Including advanced information on vehicle metrics and the ability to accurately monitor the site’s energy usage. SOLUTION The council opted for 100 Rolec EV fast chargepoints to support the charging of their staff and fleet vehicles. The network of 22kW SecuriCharge units met their requirements for a durable solution with a small footprint, thanks to its robust and sleek, wall-mounted design. Powered by Monta’s back office, the completed chargepoint network also has access to the most advanced features for fleet management. Such as a fully integrated approach to vehicle metrics, giving you information on battery size, state of charge, charging percentage and location, as well as other details. BENEFIT It is anticipated the new solar energy infrastructure will save between £100,000 and £150,000 on energy costs each year, which can be invested in Council services. As well as this, it is estimated over 250 tonnes of carbon emissions will be saved each year assisting the Council to meet its target of cutting its own emissions in half by 2025. Not only does the project serve an economical purpose it also supports a healthy grid system and makes renewable energy infrastructure a part of the city landscape. ‘It’s great to see this initiative come to fruition which will save a massive amount on council energy supply spending and will also reduce the need for us to rely on fossil fuels to power our main building. I want to say a huge thank you to everyone involved in making this happen. It is a real example of using innovative technologies to move us towards a cleaner and more sustainable future.’ - Councillor Glen Sanderson, Council Leader and Cabinet Member for Climate Change PREVIOUS NEXT Northumberland County Council
