Occupied buildings with no room for disruption
Ashcombe Estates manages 4 residential properties where residents increasingly asked about EV charging. But the buildings’ shared electrical systems had no spare capacity, and retrofitting while residents were living in occupied units meant any disruption risked real complaints.
Ashcombe also had no existing system for billing individual residents for charging usage across multiple properties.
The solution
We assessed electrical capacity and resident demand across all 4 properties, prioritizing the buildings with the strongest early interest.
Agreements were structured directly with Ashcombe Estates, covering all 4 properties under one master arrangement.
We secured phased capacity upgrades building by building, avoiding a single disruptive full-site power overhaul.
Residents ask about EV charging before they ask about almost anything else. Ampcore made it simple to say yes.

How we delivered it
Installation was scheduled building by building and unit by unit, so no resident experienced more than a single day of nearby work.
Ampcore manages per-resident billing and maintenance across all 4 properties from one system.
Ampcore’s capital funded all 42 charging points, with Ashcombe Estates receiving resident-billing revenue from day one.
The results
42 charging points now serve 340 units across 4 properties, delivered in 10 months with zero resident-disruption complaints logged during construction. Ashcombe Estates has expanded its agreement with Ampcore to cover 2 additional properties acquired since.
