Has anyone had this done & know a bit about it?

How easy is it to get organised.

We work in the energy business & when I suggested it I was tasked with enquiring so I thought I would start here first !!!

So do I, point of source in fact. "We" also install charging points. Care to guess how many we have at my site?

We've got several here in Cornwall and they're often in use.

I go up and down Bothwell St in Glasgow and there are always 2-4 cars plugged in there.

We have some at work (along with an electric car hire pool) - but that's partly due to a organisation responsible for installing them is based here 🙂
If you're based in the East of England*, try contacting this lot -

*Given that it's specifically for region, I imagine they might know of other regional organisations if you're located elsewhere

I used to work for a startup that did that, way back in the day...

My company has installed charging point at all our offices.

But plugin hybrids and electric cars are banned from our company car list 🙂
