CTEK, global leader in battery management solutions, and EVC, providers of zero-cost solutions of EV charge points and infrastructure, are engaging in a 5-year partnership to install around 100,000 EV charging points across the United Kingdom - the largest roll-out of free charging points in the UK.

The deal will see CTEK support EVC with the roll-out electrical vehicle charging equipment and associated services to the residential and commercial sector.

“As the industry evolves at a rapid rate, EVC is looking to drive sustainable mobility by providing smart and scalable charging infrastructure and management software to future proof businesses and car parks for the foreseeable future,” says a company’s press release.

This announcement comes as the registration of new plug-in electric cars bucks the trend in new UK car registrations, that hit an unprecedented low. Whilst new UK car registrations fell 1.6% year-on-year in October, plug-in electric cars saw a growth rate of 172% for the same period, which is a market share of 12%.

EVC is backed and supported by the renewable energy investment group Oasthouse Ventures
