North East electric vehicle specialist partners with London energy firm

A North East electric vehicle charging specialist is set for further expansion after partnering with a London energy company.

County Durham-based Elmtronics has signed a partnership with Octopus Energy in a bid to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) across the UK.

As part of the new deal, Elmtronics’ Hubsta network will join forces with Octopus Energy’s Electric Juice brand, a new roaming service for EV charging.

Anthony Piggott, technical director of Elmtronics, commented: “Our partnership with Octopus Energy is an important step towards helping people transition to a renewable energy future.

“It provides our customers with a greater level of service to keep them going on their electric journey. It’s also exciting to be able to support a network that will benefit our customers who are also using Octopus as an energy provider.”

Zoisa Walton of Octopus Energy’s Electric Juice Network added: “Thanks to these new partnership agreements, users of the Electric Juice Network can now benefit from considerable cross-country coverage.

“This gives them even more access to rapid charging across the UK, in addition to the networks already included with the network. All this makes it easier than ever to pay for all your charges with one simple bill.”
