What the notice says

Existing EV Charging infrastructure within Thames Water is ageing and does not meet the needs of the business in the future. Due to changes in supplier capability and to aid in reducing our carbon emissions, TW is aiming to ensure our infrastructure is capable of supporting a transition from ICE ( Internal Combustion Engine) vehicles to EVs in the future. To enable this transition of our fleet, we also need to consider the infrastructure required to keep these vehicles moving, and the systems needed to ensure our operations can continue to run smoothly with minimal impact to our customer service and downtime. Thames Water reserves the right to refine the award criteria. Please note that that deadline for asking for access to the PSQ & submitting of the PSQ is 14 January 2026, at 10 am.
