James Peacock

"Passionate energy, EV and sustainability geek* who's worked across renewable energy and the electrification of transport since 2018, in recognition of the potential impact these areas have on decarbonisation.

Devout electric vehicle enthusiast (now on my 4th secondhand electric vehicle and have toured the US and parts of Europe / the UK in electric vehicles).

Unusually enthused by public charging data, in particular utilisation data.

Core strengths are business development and sales, with a particular ability for explaining difficult concepts honed in my former life as a secondary school science (physics) teacher.

Fun fact: I once cycled over 5,000 miles throughout South America, and am currently learning to sail.

*All round geek, to be fair"
