Frequently asked questions

published by the company
How does Qwello ensure high availability of public charging infrastructure?

Qwello’s public charging infrastructure is manufactured in Germany and backed by reliable in-house IT systems. Our customer support operates 24/7, 365 days a year. Remote monitoring, regular maintenance, and modular component replacement ensure exceptional availability. This guarantees that our charge points remain operational, safe, and efficient for all users.

What is the local benefit of developing public charging infrastructure?

Developing public charging infrastructure boosts the local economy, supports environmental goals, and enhances community image. Local authorities benefit from being early adopters of sustainable transport, addressing public demand for accessible charge points while attracting visitors, creating jobs, and advancing clean mobility.

What are the costs of public charging infrastructure for us as a city or local authority?

Qwello provides fully funded public charging infrastructure at zero cost to local authorities. We cover design, supply, installation, operation, and maintenance through private investment. Our turnkey service includes 24/7 customer support, data-driven location planning, and local project delivery using certified partners.

What funding is available for public charging infrastructure?

UK funding includes ORCS and LEVI schemes, yet Qwello offers a private equity-based model requiring no public grants. Our fully funded concession approach delivers complete public charging infrastructure rollout—hardware, installation, operation, support—at no cost to the local authority or landowner.

What is public charging infrastructure?

Public charging infrastructure refers to EV charge points installed in locations accessible to all, such as public car parks, streets, retail areas, and public buildings. It is typically managed by local authorities or private landlords and supports the growing demand for EV charging.

What types of public charging infrastructure are available to local authorities?

Local authorities can choose from various charge points based on site conditions. Qwello specialises in AC charge points (7–22kW) suitable for long-dwell locations like public car parks and residential streets, offering efficient and cost-effective public charging infrastructure solutions.

Why should cities and local authorities develop public charging infrastructure?

Investing in public charging infrastructure promotes electric vehicle adoption, supports clean air goals, and creates local jobs. Qwello’s funded model provides local authorities with high-impact EV infrastructure without costs, helping achieve Net Zero targets and improve public health and urban mobility.
