Sharing the Benefits of Home Charging: Community Charging

Joel Teague is the founder of Co Charger, a company dedicated to enabling EV ownership for motorists who cannot have a charge point at home.  Having defined the concept of Community Charging in 2020 he launched the first platform built specifically to support the practice of sharing charge points within neighbourhoods.  Eight months on, the platform supports over 1,500 shared charge points and is has grown at over 40% per month so far in 2021.

Joel is a leading commentator on the acceleration of the transition to EVs and an advocate of both industry collaboration and the sharing economy in that process.  He is an elected member of the steering group for the Renewable Energy Association’s EV Forum.

Before founding Co Charger, Joel was a contract programme manager and Agile management specialist working on major initiatives within the automotive, scientific, aviation and marketing sectors.
