Starting reviewing EVs back in 2019 as my passion project then setting up a YouTube Channel in 2020. In 2022 my passion project became my full-time career. I also sit on the committees for the Irish EV Association and the EV Association of Northern Ireland.
"I saw the great work CharIN was doing around the world and I want to help out."
The Irish government’s interim target is to have 175,000 electric cars on the roads by 2025.
New plug-in vehicle registrations amounted to 20.8% in Q1 2024, comprising BEV 12.7% and PHEV 8.1%.
Ireland is one of the worst performers in EV charging with not hitting our 2024 targets and likely to miss 2025 and 2026 according to a recent Transport & Environment report.
The semi-state body responsible for grid connection is not able to deliver projects fast enough.
An increase of public charging points required with better charging hubs layout, contactless payment, clearer pricing and interoperability across all Chargepoint Operators . Hardware downtime also needs to be addressed.
Worked for my family retail business and then moved to working for a multinational. Served in the fire service for 14 years. Drove my 1st EV in 2018 and knew it was the future. Started reviewing EVs for a tech review website and then set up a YouTube Channel in 2020. Now Partnerships Director for Ireland’s only Electric Vehicle platform.
