CTEK to join NAPIT EXPO Roadshows 2026- supporting installers across the UK
At Volta EV, we’re tracking key industry developments that directly impact how installers design, deliver, and scale EV charging infrastructure.
One of the most relevant announcements for 2026 is the upcoming NAPIT EXPO Roadshow series, where CTEK will be partnering with NAPIT to deliver technical insight, product demonstrations, and installer-focused support across four UK events.
A sector focused on compliance and practical installer guidance
The 2026 NAPIT EXPO Roadshows are strongly centred on Amendment 4 of the IET Wiring Regulations, with a clear focus on helping installers understand how the changes affect real-world installation practice.
NAPIT continues to support over 200,000 registered installers across electrical, heating, ventilation, microgeneration, and wider building service disciplines. At each event, technical experts will deliver dedicated Amendment 4 masterclasses, covering:
-
Key regulatory updates
-
Practical implications for installations
-
Best practice guidance for day-to-day compliance
Attendees will also receive the latest Wiring Regulations reference book, supporting ongoing professional development beyond the event itself.
CTEK’s role – installer support and EV charging expertiseAs an established NAPIT EV partner, CTEK will be showcasing its latest EV charging solutions while also engaging directly with installers across all four roadshow locations. CTEK’s National Key Account Manager, Mike Swain, will be present on the stand, providing practical advice on:
Mike has highlighted that the roadshows are an important opportunity to demonstrate how EV charging can support sustainable business growth for installers, particularly across:
He also noted the growing importance of emerging technologies such as Autocharge and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G), alongside CTEK’s UK-based installer support team, which guides design through to deployment. |
Spotlight on scalable charging infrastructure
A key focus at the CTEK stand will be the Chargestorm Connected 3 (CC3) EV charging platform.
Designed for scalable installations, CC3 is built to support multi-chargepoint environments where efficient energy management is essential.
Load balancing and system efficiency
CTEK will also be demonstrating how its load balancing capability helps installers and site operators:
-
Manage electrical demand across multiple chargepoints
-
Improve overall system efficiency
-
Support more predictable and stable installations in constrained grid environments
This reflects a broader industry shift towards intelligent energy management rather than standalone charger deployment.
NAPIT EXPO 2026 roadshow datesThe four UK events will take place at the following venues:
Each venue brings together installers, manufacturers, and technical experts in a focused environment designed to support learning, networking, and hands-on product engagement. |
Why this matters for EV installers
For installers working in the EV sector, the combination of regulatory updates and evolving technology makes events like NAPIT EXPO particularly relevant.
From Volta EV’s perspective, these roadshows highlight three key industry trends:
-
Increasing regulatory complexity requires clearer technical guidance
-
Growing demand for scalable, multi-bay charging solutions
-
Greater emphasis on intelligent load management and system design
Engaging with manufacturers like CTEK and accreditation bodies like NAPIT (National Association of Professional Inspectors and Testers) helps installers stay ahead of these changes while building long-term capability in EV infrastructure delivery.
Volta EV perspective – what this means for the UK EV charging market
The partnership between CTEK and NAPIT at the 2026 EXPO Roadshows reflects a maturing EV charging market- one increasingly defined by collaboration, technical education, and system-level thinking.
At Volta EV, we’ll continue to follow these developments closely as we support installers and organisations across the UK in delivering reliable, future-ready EV charging solutions.
