    "description": "The UK Government\u0027s Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) has introduced the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) fund which will support Local Authorities (LAs) in England in working with the chargepoint industry to improve the roll out and commercialisation of local charging infrastructure. This infrastructure will primarily be used to help residents without off-street parking to access affordable and reliable electric vehicle (EV) chargepoints. The LEVI Capital fund aims to: \n- Deliver a step-change in the deployment of local, primarily low power, on-street charging infrastructure across England; and \n- Accelerate the commercialisation of, and investment in, the local charging infrastructure sector  \nWest Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA), as a Tier 1 authority, has been allocated \u00a314.55m of funding and are in Tranche 1 of the LEVI Capital Fund application process. As a result, WMCA are now seeking to secure investment from the market to deliver and manage Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (EVI) across the region through a concession arrangement.   \nWMCA on behalf of Transport for West Midlands (TfWM) and the 7 Constituent Local Authorities of the West Midlands (Birmingham City Council, Coventry City Council, Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council, Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council, Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council, Walsall Metropolitan Borough Council and City of Wolverhampton Council) are seeking Concessionaires of EVI to install and operate a range of EVI solutions that will support its residents who don\u0027t have the ability to charge off-street from their own residential electricity supply at home. \nThe Authority intend to enter into Concession Contracts with the successful Charge Point Operators (CPOs) to fund and deliver the required services for a 15-year duration (until 2041), with 2 x 12-month optional extension periods. The CPOs, in so doing, will accept the commercial, regulatory and technological obsolescence risks and opportunities of operating, throughout the contract duration, a network of publicly accessible electric vehicle charging spaces that meet the needs of local residents and demonstrably support the Authorities\u0027 EVI strategies. \nEVI may be located on any suitable Public Premises, including but not limited to public highway, subject to locally required licenses and/or leases as appropriate. Public Premises for the purposes of this contract means land owned, leased or otherwise from whatsoever cause under the management, control or possession of the Authority or other Public Sector Organisation.",
