Acorn properties: Southwest property developer.
An independent development and regeneration specialist that has successfully created a range of residential-led refurbishment and new build schemes.
The business.
An independent property development company with a large footprint in the south west. Their design-led solutions focus strongly on building sustainable architecture that adds quality and a sense of purpose to the local environment. Their portfolio spans both residential and mixed-use commercial properties.
The problem.
A city centre development in the South West that is successfully breathing new life into a heritage site. The building offers a number of 1-5 bedroom flats, serviced by a shared parking area.
To satisfy planning requirements, the business had been looking for an AC charging solution. A solution that offered payments and could be managed independently of the site, as they didn’t want the added admin that becoming a Charge Point Operator would entail.
How Voqa became the go-to charger for this property developer.
The Voqa One offers up to 22kW AC charging, complete with contactless payments and a managed back office, all as standard.
Asset ownership. The property development company buys the asset and transfers ownership immediately to the management company on completion.
Limited admin. Voqa runs the charging back office, managing charging and payment reconciliation.
Shared revenue. Our model means you control pricing, enabling site owners to generate a return on investment.
Problem ownership. One point of contact for hardware, software and payments.
Driver simplicity. Flat owners pay only for what they use, in a way that they understand (tap to charge using any bank card).
Space efficient. 1 unit has 2 cables, cutting installation costs per device in half.
Compliance. The Voqa One meets all UK compliance requirements and comes with UKCA certification.
Following the initial 5-unit deployment, we are exploring a wider rollout across future sites in the South West.
