  • 290 - The Mid-Season Round Table 15
    Mar 29 2026

    Are there really 160 different EV charging apps in the UK?

    In this Mid-Season Round Table, we dive deep into the biggest hurdles facing EV drivers today.

    Joining me are Jade Edwards from Zapmap and Victoria Hutton, an EV marketer, to tackle three massive topics:

    The Metric Shift: Why counting "devices" is outdated and how Zapmap & the DfT are changing the way we measure charging hubs.

    📱 The App War: Is the proliferation of CPO apps helping or hurting the user experience? We debate whether we need a "single app" solution.

    💰 The EV Tax (eVED): A frank discussion on the upcoming 3p-a-mile tax, the messaging behind it, and what it means for the future of EV adoption.
