257 The AW Energy Episode
Manage episode 486456171 series 3506369
In this episode of EV Musings, Gary interviews John Fairley, Managing Director of AW Energy, to explore how the company offers ultra-rapid EV charging at just 39p/kWh—significantly below the UK average.
The discussion covers AW Energy’s history, its integration of renewable energy with EV infrastructure, and the Checkley Wood site, where a wind turbine directly powers EV chargers.
They also discuss the scalability of this model, future plans for commercial and HGV charging, and the broader implications for renewable energy in the UK.
