Infinium Logistics bags Thurrock sites for EV FleetHub
Infinium Logistics has bought two adjoining sites in West Thurrock, Essex, with a view to creating an electrified “FleetHub”.
The sites, located on Motherwell Way near Lakeside Shopping Centre, were acquired off-market for £15m. One of them comprises a three-acre open storage investment property, while the other, a one-acre site, was previously home to an owner-occupied private property.
Infinium is now working on proposals for a parking and charging facility that will be able to accommodate between 250 and 500 vans.

Tom Gough, investment director at Infinium, said: “The site’s prime location and our development plans align with our mission to deliver optimised facilities that meet the growing demand for efficient and low-carbon transport.”
The move forms part of Infinium’s strategy to capitalise on the energy transition as a competitive advantage for its customers, through expanding its footprint and capabilities across electric vehicle charging and transport infrastructure.
Phil Bayliss, chief executive of Infinium, added: “By combining smart energy procurement and storage solutions with advances in technology and efficient real estate design, FleetHubs can provide low-carbon, low-cost power solutions for transport. This will contribute to cleaner air and a healthier environment for the local community while providing competitive advantages for forward-thinking fleet operators.”
