How can delivery of AC and DC charging empower commercial landlords?
Posted on Tuesday, Mar 11, 2025
RAW Charging is at the forefront of helping commercial landlords enhance their electric vehicle (EV) charging and sustainability strategies. At RAW, we understand the unique challenges and opportunities that come with managing commercial properties, and we have the expertise to provide innovative solutions that drive both environmental and economic benefits.
One of our key partnerships is with abrdn, one of the UK's largest landlords. Through this collaboration, we have successfully funded, installed and operate EV charging infrastructure across eight rapid hub sites with over 65 ultra-rapid charging bays at their properties.
This not only supports abrdn's sustainability goals but also enhances the value of their assets by attracting environmentally conscious tenants and customers. Our work with abrdn exemplifies how strategic EV charging solutions can transform commercial spaces into sustainable hubs.
Similarly, our partnership with Aviva Investors has been instrumental in demonstrating the impact of our solutions. We have deployed EV charging stations at multiple Aviva sites, including our most recent site at Newbury Retail Park, Ilford, London, enabling them to offer convenient and reliable charging options with a mix of speeds to their tenants and visitors. This initiative aligns with Aviva's commitment to sustainability and provides them with a competitive edge in the market by meeting the growing demand for EV infrastructure.
The importance of having a robust EV strategy for commercial landlords cannot be overstated. With over 1.47 million electric vehicles on UK roads, and 1 in 3 cars sold in the UK being electric, the demand for EV charging infrastructure is rapidly increasing. This shift towards electric vehicles is driven by both environmental concerns and regulatory requirements, making it essential for commercial landlords to stay ahead of the curve.
At RAW Charging, we believe that the future of commercial real estate lies in embracing sustainable technologies. Our comprehensive approach includes site assessments, tailored installation plans, and ongoing support to ensure optimal performance. By integrating EV charging solutions, commercial landlords can significantly reduce their carbon footprint, comply with regulatory requirements, and enhance their property's appeal.
RAW Charging provides both AC and DC EV charging solutions for clients, offering a comprehensive approach to meet diverse charging needs. AC (Alternating Current) chargers are typically used for slower, longer dwell time charging. DC (Direct Current) chargers, on the other hand, provide rapid charging, significantly reducing the time needed to recharge an EV. This dual capability is crucial as it allows commercial landlords to cater to a wide range of EV users, from those who need a quick top-up during a short visit to those who prefer longer, extended charging sessions.
By offering both AC and DC charging options, RAW Charging ensures that commercial properties can attract and retain tenants and customers who drive electric vehicles, thereby enhancing property value and supporting sustainability goals. Rapid delivery of these charging solutions empowers commercial landlords by providing the flexibility and convenience needed to meet the growing demand for EV infrastructure, ultimately contributing to a greener future.
One of our standout projects is our collaboration with McArthurGlen, a leading designer outlet group. We installed over 450 EV charging points across their UK and European sites, providing shoppers with convenient and reliable charging options. This initiative not only supports McArthurGlen's sustainability goals but also enhances the shopping experience by offering added value to their customers. The success of this project highlights the transformative potential of our EV charging solutions in retail environments.
In summary, RAW Charging is committed to empowering commercial landlords with the tools they need to thrive in a sustainable future. Our partnerships with industry leaders like abrdn and Aviva Investors showcase the transformative potential of our EV charging solutions. We look forward to continuing our work and contributing to the sustainability journey of commercial properties across the UK.
