Partner with the UK’S Public Charging Delivery Forum
Strategic Partnership Opportunities
Optimal Charging: Public Charging is a closed-door delivery forum bringing together the authorities, transport bodies and commercial partners responsible for delivering public EV charging infrastructure across the UK.
Participating authorities currently represent over £100 million of LEVI capital funding, accounting for approximately one-third of England’s Local EV Infrastructure programme.
This is not an exhibition-led conference.
It is a working forum designed to help local authorities move from procurement into delivery, whilst providing carefully selected commercial partners with meaningful engagement opportunities with the organisations shaping public charging infrastructure across the UK.
