ChargePlace Scotland
ChargePlace Scotland EV migration, made simple
Move your existing charging infrastructure to a commercially managed solution with ZOLB EV, without the confusion, admin burden, or loss of control.
As the network transitions, site owners need a clear plan. ZOLB EV helps you review existing units, assess compliance and accessibility, upgrade where needed, and move to a managed setup built for long-term performance. See Energy Saving Trust and the ChargePlace Scotland transition hub for official guidance. For context on our wider offer, see business charging.

Operations
Monitoring, maintenance, and support so your team is not carrying it alone.
Why this matters now
The network is changing
For more than a decade, ChargePlace Scotland has supported EV charging across Scotland. Owners now need to decide how infrastructure will be managed under commercial operators. Energy Saving Trust and Transport Scotland have outlined phased change: plan early to stay operational, supported, and commercially viable. See how we work with sites once you are ready to shortlist partners.
Timelines have shifted: the previously communicated 31 December 2025 cut-off is not applied the same way for every owner who had not migrated by that date. That does not remove the need to transition; it allows time to choose the right partner and model.
Doing nothing creates risk
Without a management service you may lack automated payments, network visibility, and operator support. Maintenance, uptime, and payment collection stay with you.
Why choose ZOLB EV
A migration partner, not just a hardware supplier
Turn parking into profit with a fully managed solution: installation, software, payments, support, and maintenance under one roof.
Who this is for
Organisations hosting ChargePlace Scotland infrastructure across Scotland: local authorities, attractions, hotels, leisure and retail, estates, and workplaces with public or visitor parking.
That matches where ZOLB EV already delivers: hospitality, destinations, property, and commercial sites where charging improves guest experience and unlocks parking value. Browse client stories for comparable sectors.
What we help you assess
Four pillars for a confident migration decision. Tie outcomes back to your wider business charging goals.
Infrastructure
Age, condition, and capability: migrate, upgrade, or replace as part of a longer-term plan.
Compliance & UX
Public Charge Point Regulations 2023, accessibility (e.g. PAS 1899:2022), payment and open data expectations.
Operations
Software, payment handling, monitoring, and support to keep sites running smoothly.
Commercial model
From part-funded to purchase or lease-style arrangements, aligned to usage and goals.
