Project EV is a leading electric vehicle charging distribution company, supplying a wide range of AC and DC chargers, including rapid and ultra‑rapid solutions. As a well‑established player in the EV charging market, Project EV supports businesses across the UK with robust, future‑proofed charging infrastructure.
Our relationship with Project EV began as a supplier partnership and has since evolved into a strategic collaboration, supporting their own journey towards a fully electric fleet.
Project EV was initially one of our trusted infrastructure partners, providing EV charging solutions for our customers as they transitioned their depot fleets to electric vehicles. As demand for EV adoption accelerated, Project EV itself began exploring how to electrify its own commercial fleet.
Despite operating at the heart of the EV charging industry, Project EV recognised that transitioning a high‑mileage, operational van fleet presented its own unique challenges. Their engineers and drivers regularly travel long distances, often with fully loaded vans, and there were understandable concerns around:
They were looking for a partner who not only understood EVs but genuinely shared their values and commitment to sustainability.
Dawsongroup’s insight, experience and support in the selection of the right EVs to meet our operational needs was invaluable and made the transition seemless.
Partnering with Project EV was a natural progression of an already strong working relationship. They engaged with us specifically because of our expertise in fleet electrification and our shared passion for accelerating the transition to electric mobility.
Our focus was on making the transition seamless, practical and risk‑free.
Selecting the Right Electric Vans for Operational Demands
We worked closely with Project EV to fully understand how their fleet operates day‑to‑day. This allowed us to recommend the most suitable electric vans for their specific use cases, ensuring payload capacity, range and performance aligned with their operational needs.
Overcoming Range and Payload Concerns for Electric Vans
Although their drivers cover high mileage, real‑world vehicle specifications exceeded expectations. Even with fully loaded vans, the vehicles performed exceptionally well, reassuring both drivers and fleet managers that EVs were more than capable of supporting their workload.
Ensuring a Zero‑Downtime EV Fleet Transition
A critical requirement was avoiding any disruption to operations. We ensured there was no downtime during procurement by providing interim vans, enabling Project EV to continue operating without interruption while their electric fleet was rolled out.
Ongoing Support for Drivers and Fleet Managers
Throughout the transition, we provided hands‑on support for both the business and its drivers, ensuring confidence at every stage and helping to embed EVs into their fleet operations.
Project EV has clear ambitions to move towards a fully electric fleet and is confident this goal is achievable with our continued support. Having successfully navigated the initial transition phase without disruption, they now have a scalable, future‑focused fleet strategy in place.
This partnership demonstrates that even businesses operating in the EV charging space can benefit from expert fleet electrification support, and that the right vehicles, planning and partnership make all the difference.
