CHE S407 LEVI Electric Car Club Pilot

The report explains that:

Hackney Council has been successful in securing a total of £528,500 (Five Hundred and Twenty Eight Thousand, Five Hundred Pounds) of external funding from the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) Fund which will enable the installation of 70 onstreet fast charging sockets; of which, 35 will be publicly available and 35 will be dedicated to EV car clubs to enable car club charging at the end of each vehicle journey.

The report describes the pilot as follows:

The LEVI Pilot will support the expansion and electrification of the borough’s car club fleet and provide a key opportunity to test the technical and commercial elements of electric back to base car clubs with a view to inform a future larger scale electrification of the car club provision in Hackney.

The report notes that:

The service has chosen to waive charging operators the cost of parking permits for the car club vehicles that were outlined in the business case. Instead the service will charge the operators a small administrative fee and will fund the cost of any parking permits required from existing resources within Street Scene budgets in the Climate, Homes and Economy directorate for the duration of the pilot.
