Connected Kerb announced today, November 8, 2021 that it has secured new partnerships for 10,000 on-street EV chargers across the UK in 2021 alone, most of which will be deployed across West Sussex and Kent. The West Sussex tender is believed to be the UK’s largest ever deployment by a local authority.

Deals for a further 30,000 chargers are expected to conclude next year as part of the company's ambition to ‘level up’ UK charging.

“Knowing you can arrive at virtually any location, at any time, in any vehicle and cheaply charge your battery without inconvenience or faff is the reality we have to deliver to create an EV society,” said Dr Chris Pateman-Jones, CEO of Connected Kerb.

“Our rollout of public chargers — one of the most ambitious the UK has ever seen — encapsulates that future, helping individuals and businesses to confidently make the switch to electric, reducing their carbon footprint and cutting air pollution.”
