IDENTIFY
Identify sites for EV charging.
We work with landowners and other relevant contacts to identify sites that may be suitable for EV charging infrastructure.
HOW IT WORKS
Turning site opportunities into connections.
UKCN brings landowners and EV charging providers together by identifying locations, understanding requirements and facilitating introductions.
Our role is to help establish whether there is a potential commercial fit and connect the relevant parties to discuss the opportunity.
THE PROCESS
Four stages, from site to introduction.
UNDERSTAND
Understand site and provider requirements.
We gather relevant information about the site, including its location, current use, access, available space and the landowner's objectives. We also establish the requirements of charging providers.
MATCH AND INTRODUCE
Connect relevant parties.
Where a potential match exists, we facilitate an introduction between the landowner and relevant charging provider.
EXPLORE THE OPPORTUNITY
Discuss whether to progress.
The landowner and charging provider can then discuss the commercial arrangements, undertake their own technical and planning assessments and decide whether to progress.
ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES
UKCN facilitates. The relevant parties make the decisions.
UKCN
Identifies locations, understands objectives and requirements, and facilitates introductions.
Landowners
Share site information, decide whether to make land available and discuss terms with providers.

Assess the opportunity and make technical, planning, commercial and development decisions.
Consultants & contractors

AFTER AN INTRODUCTION
What happens after an introduction?
The charging provider will generally undertake its own due diligence, which may include:
- Technical site assessments.
- Grid capacity and connection enquiries.
- Planning and regulatory considerations.
- Commercial feasibility.
- Development and installation requirements.
UKCN facilitates the introduction but cannot guarantee that a site will proceed to development.
