UrbanChain and Believ have announced a landmark partnership that will see one of the UK’s fastest-growing clean energy technology companies’ power one of the UK’s best-backed EV charge point operators with traceable, verifiable renewable energy.
Manchester Science Park-based UrbanChain will supply Believ’s expanding public charging network – set to deliver at least 30,000 charge points nationwide – with renewable energy that is local, transparent and directly matched to certified generators through UrbanChain’s private energy market model.
The partnership with Believ is UrbanChain’s first with a national EV charge point operator.
Backed by £300 million in investment from Liberty Global, Zouk Capital (the manager of the UK Government-anchored Charging Infrastructure Investment Fund), and leading infrastructure banks including Santander, ABN Amro, NatWest, and MUFG, Believ is focused on providing on-street charging solutions in residential areas, making it easier for drivers without private parking to switch to electric vehicles. A substantial portion of funding is also being directed towards rapid and ultra-rapid charging hubs, as well as improving access in rural and underserved communities, ensuring the transition away from petrol and diesel leaves no one behind.
