FIRMS COLLABORATE TO PROVIDE NEW ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING SERVICE
Sheffield-based utility infrastructure and services provider Fulcrum has collaborated with the Bayford Group and ChargePoint to provide an electric vehicle charging service at a Yorkshire stately home.
The end-to-end EV charging operation has been installed at Bowcliffe Hall in West Yorkshire.
With Fulcrum designing and installing the electrical infrastructure, utilising ChargePoint’s EV charging services, Bayford Group company Gulf Gas & Power UK will be the energy supplier, as well as managing payment processes.
The project has created six bays for EV charging at the site.
The 19th Century country home, which is located near Wetherby, is owned by the Bayford Group and has recently been transformed into an office, meetings and events venue.
Daren Harris, chief executive of Fulcrum said: “Through this collaboration, we have brought together the skills, experience and resources to deliver a comprehensive, end-to-end, EV charging solution for Bowcliffe Hall, which can be replicated across the country.
“The creation of a robust network of charging locations is essential to achieve a more comprehensive roll-out of electric vehicles across the country to help the UK meet its net-zero targets and Fulcrum is very strongly positioned to support this.”
Jonathan Turner, chief executive of the Bayford Group, recently joined the board of Fulcrum Group as a non-executive director.
He said: “I was really keen to bring together the capabilities of the project partners to deliver a comprehensive EV charging service for Bowcliffe Hall and its visitors, which has the potential to also be adopted by other businesses across the UK.
“Bowcliffe Hall has always been a progressive venue embracing the traditional and the contemporary. We have been keen supporters of Electric Vehicles and this upgrade of our charging facilities will benefit visitors and the environment.”
