Government bodies

As the UK transitions to low-emission transport, we're supporting central, regional and local government alongside associated agencies to evidence funding bids and structure Net Zero strategies and planning with high-integrity EV charging data and location optimisation insights.

Partnering with the public sector to support EV decision-making

Map demand and optimise location planning with gold-standard data  

The transition to electric vehicles is gaining momentum, and a key challenge lies in the development of a robust and accessible charging network. Zapmap is trusted by national and local government, as well as transport agencies and consultancies, to help move past guesswork in public infrastructure planning by supplying robust and comprehensive EV charger data. 

 

Data-driven strategies for net zero

With the most comprehensive EV charging dataset in the UK, underpinned by our deep understanding of the EV landscape and driver behaviours, we help public sector bodies solve complex infrastructure challenges by enabling you to:

Evidence funding and compliance decisions: use comprehensive datasets to support investment cases and regulatory shifts.

Identify network gaps and assess demand: pinpoint exactly where chargers are needed most to avoid duplication of effort and misallocated resources.

Monitor infrastructure performance: track existing charger availability and usage to inform future planning.

Support equitable charging: Ensure rural areas and low-income neighbourhoods are not left behind in the transition.

The right tools to simplify complex decision making

With LEVI funding awards now getting underway, it's not enough to have oversight of your own plans: understand the charging landscape across on-street, destination and en-route locations in your area to be sure the right chargers are being installed in the right places.

Monitor Locations (two data tiers): gain full market visibility with the UK's most accurate charger location data. Detailed information on over 95% of public charge points. Segment data by power rating (e.g., 7kW, 22kW, 50kW), network, and location category. Advanced GIS visualisation for spatial analysis and infrastructure planning.

Monitor Utilisation (three data tiers): understand how the network is actually being used to predict future demand. Analyse charging patterns by geography, time of day, energy transfer proxies and dwell time. Benchmark regional performance against the entire UK market.

Trusted by industry leaders

Our team brings together a unique mix of expertise across data science, energy systems, business strategy, technology and spatial analytics, built on a foundation of experience dating back to the earliest days of EV adoption. We've worked alongside organisations such as Transport for the North, Midlands Connect, Cenex and McKinsey & Company.
