23 open EV charging tenders in United Kingdom · 13 added in the last 30 days · next deadline 2026-09-18
UK public bodies buy EV charging infrastructure through two national notice services: the Find a Tender service (FTS) for above-threshold contracts, now integrated with the Central Digital Platform under the Procurement Act 2023, and Contracts Finder for lower-value opportunities. Alongside open tenders, a large share of activity runs through frameworks — most notably ESPO's Vehicle Charging Infrastructure framework, which lets local authorities, schools, NHS trusts and blue-light services call off approved suppliers by direct award or mini-competition instead of running a full EV charging framework procurement from scratch. Typical buyers are local authorities delivering on-street and car-park charging (often LEVI-fund supported), transit operators electrifying depots, NHS trusts, and central government departments. Because the UK sits outside the EU's TED/OJEU regime post-Brexit, above-threshold EV charging contracts are advertised domestically rather than EU-wide, though value thresholds still determine the route. Contracts are typically structured as capital installation plus a multi-year maintenance and back-office concession, priced in GBP, and increasingly bundled with social value commitments suppliers must address directly in their bids.

One won contract pays for decades of ChargeTenders.
Above-threshold notices appear on the Find a Tender service (find-tender.service.gov.uk); lower-value opportunities are on Contracts Finder. Many public bodies also call off directly from the ESPO Vehicle Charging Infrastructure framework rather than running a fresh procurement.
Any UK or overseas supplier meeting the buyer's technical and financial standing criteria can bid. Since the Procurement Act 2023, suppliers must also register on the Central Digital Platform to submit certain core organisational information once, for reuse across bids.
Notices appear continuously — councils, NHS trusts and transport bodies publish EV charging opportunities most weeks, ranging from single-site installations to multi-year regional concessions and framework mini-competitions. Setting up saved searches on both Find a Tender and Contracts Finder is the most reliable way to catch new notices as they publish.
