BluepointLondon To Manage EV Charge Points in London to Improve the Source London Network

BluepointLondon Ltd, the operator of Source London since September 2014, announced that it has finalised an agreement with Transport for London (“TfL”), the London Borough of Sutton and the London Borough of Southwark.

The agreement makes BluepointLondon responsible for the management of an initial 60 electric vehicles (EV) charge points, which represents 13% out of the 460 charge points in London boroughs as part of the scheme.

This agreement will ensure these points are fully functional and compliant with EU standards as well as overseeing any necessary repairs for the benefit of the growing number of EV users across London.

BluepointLondon currently has over 3,000 members, 1,400 EV charge points in 27 London boroughs and 39 private partners.

Since taking over from TfL, BluepointLondon has undertaken an in-depth audit and will start implementing a live monitoring solution for all charge points which were part of the scheme. This agreement will start the deployment of a mobile maintenance team to assess the faults and start the necessary works. In the future, the points in the London Boroughs of Sutton and Southwark, as well as the TfL charge points, will now be serviced regularly to minimise faults and downtime.

In due course, other boroughs will be announced and, in consultation with local authorities, new charge points will supplement the network to ensure greater coverage and availability.

By 2018, BluepointLondon’s target, via the Source London scheme, is to have 6,000 charge points under management across London to oversee the growth of electric cars in London.

Christophe Arnaud, Director of BluepointLondon, said: “We are delighted to be responsible for these 60 EV charge points in London. This means we are finally in a position to offer electric vehicle users in the London Borough of Southwark and the London Borough of Sutton a better charging infrastructure and experience. This agreement is a key step in providing all Londoners with a sustainable alternative to traditional transport means. A better maintained and more extensive charging infrastructure will mean more drivers are able to use electric vehicles and join the early-adopters who are already helping London reach lower emissions level. We are very excited to be playing our part.”
