At Moore Barlow, we’re proud to support Fastned, the ultrarapid EV charging station business driving the transition to cleaner transport across Europe. Since entering the UK market, Fastned has expanded rapidly, with more than 200 charging points across the country and a strong pipeline of projects – from a major airport development in Newcastle to the UK’s first indoor charging station in Aberdeen.
Our relationship with Fastned has been led by Richard Hughes and Callum Leary, with support from colleagues across employment, company, and commercial law. Much of our work has focused on securing and developing charging sites, helping Fastned to deliver reliable, high-speed charging where drivers need it most.
One of the highlights of our work together has been supporting Fastned’s joint venture with Places for London. We assisted with their successful joint tender bid, which will deliver five sites across London initially, and 25 sites by 2030. A major step in improving EV infrastructure in the capital.
A trusted partnership
Richard, Callum and the winder Moore Barlow team have developed a close working relationship with Henry Foster, Fastned’s UK Legal Counsel Lead. That partnership shines through in our latest client video, filmed at a local Fastned charging site. In it, Henry shares how Moore Barlow’s legal support has been instrumental in helping Fastned achieve its ambitious UK growth plans.
