Fleet News Group editor, Marc Sibbald, guest hosts the latest podcast with Jonny Parker, CEO and founder of EV Infrastructure group Thundergrid in New Zealand.

Sibbald caught up with Parker on the sidelines of the EROAD’s Fleet Day, held in Christchurch in late February. They talk about how NZ followed the Norwegian model to support EV adoption and how now EVs are going to help power NZ.

“We’re basically here to protect the grid,” said Parker describing Thundergrid, adding, an explanation of how increasing demands on the island nation’s power grid could lead to increased brownouts.
