eSmart Networks were appointed by Artelia to complete an 11kV installation providing a supply for new EV Charging points. This included the first Artelia site in Europe using Tritium PKM 150 EV fast charging points which offer world-class reliability and serviceability.
As part of this project eSmart Networks designed and built a connection to the existing HV network and installed a new High Voltage (HV) substation, including precast bases, and Low Voltage (LV) pillar terminations. All works were completed whilst working within close proximity of local residences and a fully operational filling station.
eSmart Networks were appointed to provide the capability for RATP Dev Transit London to run new electric bus routes from their Westbourne Park depot. This required the provision of 20 new charging outlets and the infrastructure to power them.
Using knowledge from across the business we were able to implement a scheme that allowed the client to power these chargers from their existing metered supply into the site. We also gave them the opportunity to have a new connection exclusively for the bus charging supply.
As part of this project, eSmart Networks had to install a new 11kV packaged substation, custom-built LV Pillar and 20no 80kW BYD Chargers along with civils work, fitting of armco barriers and a custom fabricated walkway around the site.
This is the first phase of an exciting development to introduce over 30 more electric buses onto routes in this area. We are delighted to partner with RATP Dev Transit London in their continued electrification of their fleet.
