What are the practicalities of getting an electric vehicle (EV)? We know that the sale of new EVs will overtake internal combustion engine (ICE) cars in the near future thanks to changes in legislation and societal attitudes, but what is the situation today if you want to buy and drive an EV? How ready are potential consumers to make the switch away from petrol and diesel cars – and is the UK charging infrastructure fit for purpose?

In this episode of Power to the People, Jon Tickle continues on his journey to learn more about the electrification of our roads. He will be finding out about the opportunities along the way – such as vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology and ‘energy as a currency’ – and looking at some of the challenges we need to navigate to reach a greener future of transportation.

There’s a smart new future ahead of us, where we will be connecting our electric vehicles – our mobility – in a very holistic way to our home energy. This is looking more essential by the day, in the light of the startling fact that a quarter of our CO2 emissions come from our homes.  

In this episode Jon Tickle sets out to find out how we can improve this carbon footprint, and he asks: How can we make our homes truly connected to our energy providers and the grid, and in what ways will the open flow of data and information enable this to happen?
