Companies with fleets are finding it hard to make the large-scale change to EVs. Charging infrastructure is one of the significant barriers that must be overcome for widespread adoption.We will:1. Eliminate the huge cost and lead-times for grid upgrades and the expense and disruption of installing fixed charging infrastructure.2. Provide access to short-term charging solutions that provide both low speed and rapid charging facilities for trialling EVs.3. Deliver a low-cost solution for providing sufficient power for grid-constrained sites, without the time-consuming delays and huge costs associated with grid upgrades.These barriers mean that fleets find it hard to even trial EVs to understand how best to use them within their business. The lack of both short-term and cost-effective long-term charging solutions has become a significant barrier to widespread EV adoption within a fleet environment.Our vision is to accelerate the uptake of EVs in fleets by providing a module, flexible ultra-rapid charging hub for 6-48 vehicles, delivered and installed in 1-2 days, eliminating the dependency of grid constraints, and delivered at a lower cost than any existing solution.Additionally, we will investigate the opportunities to create:1. A nationwide short-term hire scheme for charging hubs and power supplies for fleets wishing to carry out evaluations and trials for the rollout of electric vehicle fleets.2. A nationwide pay-as-you-use long-term rental model demonstrating a significant reduction in running costs over refuelling conventional vehicles with diesel.**Innovations:**1. A centralised charging system which shares charging resources effectively across a fleet of vehicles, providing the right amount of power to each vehicle (up to 350kW).2. A 1MW ready charging solution for future charging requirements.3. A novel above-ground cable trunking system that eliminates civil groundworks.4. A rapid deployment system that allows a charging hub to be delivered and commissioned in 1-2 days, then redeployed quickly when necessary.5. A short-term hire scheme for fleets to hire rapid charging hubs with power infrastructure for fleet trials.

拥有车队的公司发现很难对电动汽车进行大规模的改变。充电基础设施是广泛采用必须克服的重大障碍之一。我们将：1.消除电网升级的巨大成本和交付周期，以及安装固定充电基础设施的费用和中断。2.提供短期充电解决方案，为试用电动汽车提供低速和快速充电设施。提供低成本的解决方案，为电网受限的站点提供充足的电力，而不会因电网升级而产生耗时的延迟和巨大的成本。这些障碍意味着车队甚至很难试用电动汽车，以了解如何在业务中最好地使用它们。缺乏短期和具有成本效益的长期充电解决方案已成为车队环境中广泛采用电动汽车的重大障碍。我们的愿景是通过提供一个模块，灵活的超快速充电中心，可供6-48辆车使用，在1-2天内交付和安装，消除对电网限制的依赖，并且以比任何现有解决方案更低的成本交付。此外，我们将研究创造以下机会：1.为希望进行电动汽车车队推广评估和试验的车队提供充电中心和电源的全国性短期租赁计划。全国范围内的按使用付费长期租赁模式，与使用柴油为传统车辆加油相比，大大降低了运营成本。**创新：**1.一个集中式充电系统，在整个车队中有效地共享充电资源，为每辆车提供适量的电力（高达350千瓦）。2. 1兆瓦的充电解决方案，满足未来的充电需求。3.一种新型的地上电缆干线系统，消除了民用地面工程。一个快速部署系统，允许充电中心在1-2天内交付和调试，然后在必要时快速重新部署。5.为车队提供短期租赁计划，以租用具有电力基础设施的快速充电中心进行车队试验。
