On-street Residential Chargepoint Scheme (ORCS)
The On-street Residential Chargepoint Scheme, known as ORCS funding, looks to install charge points in on-street parking areas, like terraced streets, allowing residents to charge their vehicles at home. For many, electric vehicle charging happens off-road in garages and driveways. However, off-street parking is not available to everyone. By installing charge points on streets, this will provide facilities for those without a driveway.
North Lincolnshire Council have partnered with Ubitricity to install 35 charge points in areas across North Lincolnshire to support residents to charge their EV close to their home property. The Electric Vehicle Charge Points (EVCP’s) are connected to existing street lights or in the form of a bollard where the street light it situated at the back of the footpath (to avoid trailing cables).
The charge points are slow speed (5.3kW) and are designed for users to charge their vehicles overnight or at a slow speed throughout the day.
