Job Descrption
Electric Miles is a cleantech company developing the world’s most intelligent Internet of Energy (IoE) electric vehicle charging solution. We connect EV and home batteries with the best computer intelligence to help users save energy costs, be more efficient, and reduce overall energy.
Why join the fastest growing EV startup?
Motoring is on the verge of a massive transformation. Charging them will put a significant strain on the National Grid. From June 2022, the UK government has mandated that every charger sold must be Smart and pre-set to not charge at peak time. We have signed contracts for over 50,000 chargers on our platform in the next 3 years and have a mandate for over 20 MWs with the local grids to deploy thousands of EVs to move charging away from peak periods and avoid network outages. We have a fantastic team of 15 with vast experience and expertise in Energy, Software, and Venture Building. We are a member of the government’s EV task force and we won an award for being... the most innovative EV product in the UK. As a result, we are in a great place to be the leader in SMART charging and Grid flexibility Management not just in the UK but across the world.
