Building EV charging infrastructure that lasts with Louis Tremblay from FLO


Listen Later

In order to get drivers to convert from gas-powered cars to electric, there needs to be reliable charging infrastructure. Today on Found, Dom and Becca are joined by Louis Tremblay, the CEO and founder of FLO, a company that manufactures electric vehicle charging stations and has been creating charging infrastructure in the US and Canada for the last 15 years. Tremblay also talked about how he intentionally built this company to be a rewarding and fun place to work and what advice he has for new founders trying to do the same. 

In this conversation they cover:

  • The components that go into creating superchargers for public use and why these isn’t just one kind of EV plug
  • The process of working with cities to design charging stations that reflect the character of the city
  • The importance of developing the hardware alongside the software to create the best customer experience possible
