About Us

We're on a mission to make clean energy easier for everyone. We take pride in our promise to do what's right by our people, customers, and planet – it's basically why we get up in the morning. Across charging, solar, storage and business, our ambition remains the same: inspiring a clearer path to clean energy.

Unlike other start-ups, we are lucky to be 100% backed by Liberty Global which has a portfolio of more than 50 companies across content, technology, and infrastructure, including strategic stakes in companies like Plume, ITV, Lions Gate, Univision, the Formula E racing series and several regional sports networks.

This means we can remain laser focussed on our mission, rather than pounding the pavement for funding.

We care deeply about making a difference to the planet and are on the hunt to find other humans who feel the same way.

We also care a lot about Egg puns – the more the merrier.

If this sounds like you – crack on!
