Encourage EV use and generate revenue
Improving air quality in cities, encouraging electric vehicles (EVs) and clean public transport are priorities UK-wide. Residents now expect councils to become future ready for EVs. Local authorities and parking operators must act to support emission-free motoring by provisioning public charging points in car parks and on-street. Flowbird can help.
WHY PLAN FOR EV NOW?
EV-only new car sales from 2030
Plug-in cars already now account for more than 10 per cent of UK sales¹

INCOME FROM PARK & CHARGE
Underutilised urban and city centre car park settings are ideal locations to site pay-per-use EV charging stations. By already running 70% of the spaces where charging will likely be deployed, Flowbird supports a combined parking and charging strategy. We provide fully managed EV park and charge package solutions, from specification, planning and installation through to operation and maintenance with our Charge Point Operator service.
GOVERNMENT FUNDING
Through the government’s On-street Residential Chargepoint Scheme funding and public-private collaborations and partnerships, local authorities can affordably access EV charging point and electrification solutions, encouraging both private drivers and commercial fleets to embrace zero emission EVs. Funding covers 75% of the capital costs of procuring and installing the chargepoint and an associated dedicated parking bay.
