158 - The Northern Ireland Episode

This is episode 158 of EV Musings a podcast about renewables, electric vehicles and things that are interesting to electric vehicle owners.

On the show today we'll be looking at one of the poor relations of the EV charging world: Northern Ireland. For many years they had a really limited number of Rapid chargers - many of which were not maintained. The situation was dire for NI EV owners.

But that is finally starting to change.

We chat with Mark McCall from EVANI for an update.

This season of the podcast is sponsored by Zap-Map, the free to download app that helps EV drivers search, plan, and pay for their charging.
