Is “smart charging” just a bunch of… hype? What does it *actually* do? 😉 I’m so glad you asked! During MOVE: Mobility Re-imagined London, I was joined by Gianluca Corbellini, CEO of Hive Power and Vince Bartal, VP of eMobility at Interv_l Group | B Corp™ to delve into the buzz around smart charging and its implications for Europe's EV sector. We discussed how the fluctuating energy prices pose significant risks of escalating costs, especially for fleets and personal EVs without controlled charging strategies. Gianluca highlighted how smart charging optimization could offset these risks, while Vince shed light on the impact of these developments on attracting new talent to the EV industry. Tune in for more smart charging insights that *may* (or may not) challenge how you think about total cost of ownership for an EV. ⚡️Massive thanks to the amazing Interv_l Group | B Corp™ and Vince Bartal for making this episode possible! 🎧 Apple: https://lnkd.in/e-66GyPi 🎧 Spotify: https://lnkd.in/epTpNFn8 🎧 Online: https://lnkd.in/ekwPK6Da #MOVE2024 #EVsforEveryone #EVs #electricvehicles #smartcharging #EVcharging Terrapinn Stuart Middleton Amanda Whitmore
