| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to another episode of the fully charged show podcast. |
| 0:16.0 | One of the long running anxieties, worries, questions, really reasonable questions is, I don't live in a house with |
| 0:28.0 | a driveway that I can park a car in, how do I charge my car? I live in an apartment. I don't have specific parking spaces |
| 0:36.0 | for me. I live in a terraced house in a city. How can I charge my car? It's all well and good for you fancy-pants people with your own driveway. |
| 0:45.6 | Okay, so some basic stats on that. In the UK, 60% percent of households have somewhere off the street to park, which is really surprising. |
| 0:56.9 | This is government figures, which means 40% of people don't. |
| 1:00.6 | So currently there's no excuse for 60% of the population not to have an electric car. |
| 1:05.0 | A lot less than that. |

| 1:37.1 | term apartments, as in collective buildings, not one house on the ground, but multiple floors of houses and flats and all the apartments |
| 1:46.4 | and all that. |
| 1:47.4 | So two-thirds of people haven't got somewhere, they can park a car off the street. |
| 1:53.4 | So that has to be addressed. |
| 1:57.3 | And that is what we're doing today. |
| 1:58.8 | We are addressing that very problem |
| 2:01.6 | with a company called Wevo who are who run electric car charging |
| 2:06.8 | software behind the scenes and I'm not going to try and describe what they do |
| 2:10.6 | because our guest today is going to be a far more adept at |
