How can electric vehicles shape the future of energy and mobility, and what role does infrastructure play in this transition? In this episode, we hear from Bob Murphy, a technical executive at Scottish Power, as he takes us on a journey through the evolution of electric vehicle fleets and charging infrastructure. With over a decade of experience in the EV space, Bob reflects on the early days of electric vehicles, sharing his personal journey and the challenges faced in pioneering EV adoption at Edinburgh College, including the development of their first all-electric fleet.
We explore the practicalities and benefits of adopting EVs for both personal and fleet use, including the advantages of charging points, smart metering, and tailored tariffs for home charging. From Bob’s hands-on experiences in setting up charging stations across Scotland to how companies are embracing the shift towards greener energy, this episode highlights the critical role of sustainable energy solutions in today’s world.
We also explore the rise of renewable energy in Scotland and the broader UK, with insights into how Scottish Power is contributing to net-zero goals, providing smarter, greener living options, and adapting to the changing energy landscape.
