Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners has announced an investment in Aegis Energy to develop a network of clean, multi-energy recharging and refuelling facilities for commercial vehicles in the UK. The investment aims to deploy £100 million over the next three years to construct hubs in cities like Sheffield, Immingham, Warrington, Corby, and Towcester, with a target of 30 hubs by the end of the decade. These hubs will cater to truck and van operators transitioning to cleaner fuels such as electric, HVO, hydrogen, and bio-CNG, addressing the challenge of limited public charging infrastructure. Each hub is expected to have the capacity to charge over 40 heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) and 25 vans simultaneously, providing essential support for operators making the transition to low and zero-emission vehicles. On the other hand, Jatco, a Japanese automotive transmission manufacturer, has inaugurated a new facility in Sunderland, UK, to produce electric vehicle powertrains for Nissan. The £48.7 million investment will create up to 183 skilled jobs and support Nissan's EV36Zero project, which focuses on developing new all-electric vehicles. The facility, situated at the International Advanced Manufacturing Plant (IAMP), demonstrates the commitment to expanding electric vehicle manufacturing in the region. Additionally, North Tyneside Council's approval of a new development featuring rapid charging bays powered by renewable energy signifies a step towards enhancing the EV infrastructure, providing accessible and sustainable charging options for electric vehicle users in the area.
