Leading the destination charging experience - with sustainability in mind.
Our commitment to ESG extends beyond the immediate scope of our operations – our approach to sustainability considers the broader impact of our business on society and the environment.
Environmental
Sustainability is an ethical and business imperative. Managing our carbon footprint goes hand in hand with the necessity to operate efficiently. Our commitment to tackling climate change is fundamental to our strategic objectives as a business.
Social
Our people make up our business. We aim to foster an environment that values and nurtures talents and the contributions from every individual within a culture of inclusivity. While we have progress to make, we are committed to working with our team - cultivating and empowering change to build an inclusive workplace where we can all thrive.
Governance
Good governance is foundational to our business, and all aspects of ESG. We cannot thrive without paying attention to our compliance obligations. Our business seeks to go beyond the concept of ‘box-ticking’ and embed compliance into the heart of what we do.
We understand the importance of reducing carbon emissions to propel the UK forwards on its journey to Net Zero. Our dedication to growing the UK’s network of EV charging infrastructure is helping to reduce CO2 produced through the burning of fossil fuels, used in the production of petrol and diesel.
Not only do we embrace green practices ourselves, our business model means we are able to support our clients on their sustainability journeys – we provide businesses with fully funded EV charging solutions, so that they can easily reduce greenhouse gases produced through visitor travel. No business can thrive without a healthy planet, so first and foremost, we make sure sustainability underpins all that we do.

Meet the ESG team
The aim of our ESG committee is to establish a unified view of ESG within EVC, increasing understanding of all three aspects, environmental, social and governance, and to promote robust standards of corporate governance that integrate all these aspects. This will help the EVC to more effectively integrate ESG factors into the business’s decision-making process.
