United Kingdom-based LiFe Network, owned and powered by RAW Charging, has begun working with Plugsurfing to further push their expansion across the UK and Europe. This partnership adds to Plugsurfing's growing network of charging points across the UK, Scotland, and Northern Ireland.

Our team is working hard to deliver the future of emobility, and our Chief Product and Technology Officer Will Gill is building the technology to shape that future. He also drives an EV, giving him a deeper understanding of the innovations drivers need in the space. Plugsurfing Communications Manager Maxwell Philp recently chatted with Will about his experience driving an EV and what’s needed to bring the industry, and public charging, to the next level.

In Europe, temperatures are already dropping below freezing. For EV drivers, cold temperatures pose some novel challenges for both daily driving and longer journeys. Low temperatures can negatively impact range and charging capacity, and drivers need to take extra considerations into account when winter hits. If you recently bought or rented an EV and are hitting the wintry road for the first time on electricity, the Plugsurfing team has got your back.

To go on a road trip without a plan is the ultimate freedom that people crave from a car. There is a certain charm in jumping in a car without a destination in mind and seeing where the journey will take you.

In December 2020, Nissan celebrated ten years of the all-electric LEAF, the first mass-market electric vehicle. First available for sale in Japan, Europe, and America, the cars are present in 59 markets. With more than half a million cars sold, LEAF has been considered one of the best-selling EVs of all time.

Ignitis supplies electricity and gas to 1.6 million business and private customers in Lithuania. The company currently operates both directly and through its subsidiaries in Latvia, Estonia, Poland, and Finland.

In 2012, when Plugsurfing first entered the market, electric cars were few and far between. Public charging was much more fragmented than the way it is now, so going for a trip outside town in an EV required careful planning.

Hubject and Plugsurfing have renewed their long-lasting international partnership to support the growth of EV charging in Europe.

This summer, Plugsurfing’s aim to fortify the link between car maker, charge point operator and EV driver builds momentum.
