At EVN we pride ourselves on creating charging hubs and infrastructure with the driver in mind.
All aspects are considered when designing and planning a hub to ensure safety and security for the drivers, efficiency for our CPOs and optimisation of the long-term assets for our landlords.
All our charging hubs have:
Convinience & Facilities
Comfort is key to EV drivers, with longer dwell times and range boosting, facilities on or near to our locations is one of the core factors when considering our charging hubs. We work with many high street convinience companies to locate charging on sites that offer toilet and refreshment areas. Where this isnt possible, we build our own https://www.theevnetwork.com/about/evn-station/
Adequate parking space
When designing our sites, we prioritize comfort, convenience, and safety. That’s why we allocate a minimum of one and a half parking bays per EV space, ensuring drivers have plenty of room to maneuver around their vehicles and easily plug in
Adequate lighting
Safety and security at all hours of day night is key to our sites being popular with the charging customer. We ensure adequate and appropriate additional lighting at all our charging hubs.
CCTV
For drivers and site security, all our sites have 24/7 monitored CCTV
PAS bays
We adhere to PAS 1899:2022 the British Standards Institution (BSI) standard that sets out requirements and recommendations for accessible electric vehicle (EV) charging points.
ANPR
To ensure the charging hubs are focussed on EV drivers and their charging requirement, we install ANPR security across all our sites.
DNA Paint
To deter cable theft and vandalism, all our charges are now protected with DNA paint, this has reduced the amount of broken or damaged chargers.
Convinience & Facilities
Comfort is key to EV drivers, with longer dwell times and range boosting, facilities on or near our locations are one of the core factors when considering our charging hubs.
