Breaking News! We're excited to announce that char.gy has secured a £100 million funding commitment to expand the UK's on-street EV charging infrastructure! This significant investment from Zouk Capital LLP, as part of the UK Governments Charging Infrastructure Investment Fund (CIIF), positions char.gy as a key partner for #LocalAuthorities in their EV charge point concessions. It will bolster direct government funding from the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Fund (#LEVI), and ensure together we can deliver equitable access to public charging infrastructure for all. Reacting to the news, John Lewis CEO of char.gy, said: "The latest funding will help us accelerate our ambitious growth plans and will be directed towards the rollout of more charge points across the next five years. We are here to partner with local councils, providing the expertise and scale needed to drive the UK’s green agenda forward." With plans to grow the network from over 3,000 charge points today to 100,000 by 2030, this expansion will support the transition for up to 1 million drivers and provide vital support for the 40% of UK households without access to off-street parking.

See you all again next year! Energy affordability; renewables such as solar and battery storage #funded by organisations such as ours, are clearly a top priority within organisations. Looking forward to delivering SNRG smartgrids together at your new developments Ps. I got to present to the dragons again, profile picture updates coming ………..previous post……… Heathrow tomorrow and Wednesday, no planes involved. Housing Association Partnership Network (HAPN) promise likeminded leaders who are and will continue to put Sustainability, Community and Fairness at the front of their housing designs and developments. I will be one of those leaders attending, sharing how SNRG make Landlord and Resident energy bills affordable and not just for heating their homes and hot water, but also for charging their electric vans and cars. I'll demonstrate how adding Solar and Communal Storage Batteries will significantly reduce carbon, lifting the EPCs for the whole community, not just those lucky enough to be able to host solar. I'll also look forward to explaining how SNRG will fund and maintain the lot. Looking forward to meeting like-minded innovators over the Partnership Network Events (PNE) hosted lunch and for those last year, I promise not to leave my heels on the car roof (still on the A316 somewhere) #Housing #FutureHousing #Smartgrid #EnergyBills #Sustainability #Fairness #Housing #Affordability #EVs #Community #Solar #Batteries #EPCs #Carbon #Heels #A316 Charles Cameron Keith Murray Richard Airey Kyae Lee #SOHA #Citizen #RyanAssetManagement #PlunkettFoundation #connexushomes #nationalhousinggroup #sng #originhousing #sovereignnetworkgroup #southernhousing #clarionhousing #L&Q Helen Lambert CMgr FCMI Amanda Knowles Zarina Khalid Dritan U.
