Drax Electric Vehicles has gone live with a new warehouse and office facility in Coventry amid soaring fleet demand for EV infrastructure.

Located at Holbrook Park, the new site forms of expansion plans to employ 120 staff and operate two additional depots across the UK, supporting large-scale fleet operators making the transition to electric vehicles.

The new facility will serve as a warehouse with office and meeting facilities for Drax EVs and its BMM Energy Solutions installation business, boosting the companies’ expanding operations across the UK.

BMM Energy Solutions has been installing EV charging hubs and on-street EV charging for the past 12 years. Its customers include Euro Garages, Applegreen Electric, Morrisons Supermarkets, Jolt and Arnold Clark, with many of these installations within the Coventry area.

Adam Hall, director of Drax Electric Vehicles and BMM Energy Solutions, said: “Electric vehicle charging is a growth area. With our experience and the new premises, we aim to employ 120 staff and operate two additional depots.

“Coventry is the perfect location for us. Its close proximity to the motorways allows our engineers to access almost anywhere in the country to install EV charge points. There’s also a fantastic pool of local talent to support our growth ambitions.”

Together, Drax EVs and BMM Energy Solutions offer a complete end-to-end journey for organisations seeking to electrify their fleets or premises. They cover everything from vehicle suitability assessments through to charge point installation, operation and ongoing maintenance – providing fleet managers with a single point of contact throughout their electrification journey and delivering cost-effective, future-proofed charging solutions.
