Description of the procurement

Bus Éireann requires a turnkey solution for the supply and installation of electric vehicle charging infrastructure for optimal overnight charging of future electric buses, operating two town service routes in Athlone, Co. Westmeath.
The complete turnkey solution shall be compliant with all relevant Irish and European statutory regulations and international standards governing the installation and use of such equipment and will be based on a minimum 150kW IEC 61851 Mode 4 Direct Current charging protocol, using a Combined Charging System 2.0 (CCS 2.0) Combo 2 charging connection.
As the installation is an early deployment of Electric Vehicle bus chargers, a semi-permanent modular solution is preferable, allowing for future adaptation and expansion on site or at other locations.
The scope of works includes complete project management of the turnkey solution, the associated electrical and civil works required for the safe installation and commissioning of all related equipment, including (but not limited to) transformers, chargers and charging points at the site and the back office support protocols and training of relevant Bus Éireann staff.
A comprehensive Service & Maintenance support package will also be required for a period of not less than 5 years.
Site installation and commissioning of the charging infrastructure is expected to be completed by end Q1, 2022 ahead of the delivery of Battery Electric Vehicles for the two routes.
