Description

***** THIS IS AN AWARD NOTICE, NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION *****

This procurement is being concluded following a mini competition under the CCS RM6126 Research & Insights DPS

Brief Description of Requirement

We are procuring this research to inform policy decisions to support the uptake of commercial EVs and charging infrastructure and to help unlock the potential benefits of smart charging with commercial vehicles.

The aims of the project are as follows:
- Develop the evidence base on the current access to charging infrastructure and charging patterns of commercial vehicles (principally vans)
- Identify barriers and enablers to installing and engaging with smart charging technologies, and understand wider barriers to fleet electrification
- Develop a dataset which the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero can use to develop assumptions for their modelling of EVs, demand side response, and vehicle-to-grid capacity in Net Zero pathways
- To inform the design of an online survey with van drivers later in the year
