The airport itself might reach net zero by 2030, but what about the vast emissions from all the flights it facilitates?! 🧐
I hope Tesla Superchargers are part of the plan.
79p per KW/h .. no thanks
For pity's sake, just put contactless payment pads on the chargers. 🙄😖🤬
Integrate with Electroverse already!
great app!
not ANOTHER app, just integrate with electroverse rfid please
Any update on when Auto charge will be available?
Plug and charge is what they should implement as that is an ISO standard. Integrate with Electroverse too as payment provider.
@@mike.n.davies plug and charge is the gold standard for non Tesla charging. The problem is there are relatively few plug and charge compatible cars. Fastened have already implemented their version of auto charge so I expect Gridserve to do the same.
Downloaded. Done.
I have been waiting for this app and looking forward to using it. The initial discount is the way forward. I like Gridserve and they would be my number one choice if prices were lower.
Would be nice if it was also an iPad app 😉
Nice, but with iOS only having 3/10 phone o/s, iPad app would be even smaller. I'd recommend you just use Zap Map or ABRP.
When are you going lower your charging costs to be in line with Tesla? If they can do it so can you.
Tesla subsidise their network by selling cars. At one time that was totally as all of their cars had free supercharging for life. That ended quite a few years ago now but it's still not quite fair to compare Gridserve to the largest Western EV maker.
@@AdamPurcell Disagree. Wholesale electricity prices have continued to drop and drop. Gridserve all other networks have kept their prices very very high and suspiciously similar across the board. When petrol stations did the same when the price of oil dropped the public and the media would kick up a fuss and they would always start to drop their prices accordingly. They are simply RIP off prices charged by GridServe etc. Initial build costs are huge but the electricity supply is cheap. I always use Tesla now. And so many of their SuperChargers are now open all around the UK. (70+ and counting) 2-3 times cheaper than the completion and fantastically reliable app. And now a Tesla Membership means it is even cheaper. No brainer.
The same time Tesla starts investing in building massive EV forecourts and solar farms. Tesla charging stations are marketing/branding for their cars
I’m currently travelling in Ireland from the uk in my EV and ultra rapid on ESB is 46c KWh - shows the price in UK is Made up BS
I think the price has something to do with uk vat on wholesale price. A government could scrap that but would the cost saving be passed down to us.
Oh great; talk about flogging a dead horse; the entire EV world is in question and people keep trying to convince us EVs are the future. They may be some day but the technology will have to change radically. As trdv33 says, these will be impractical (I want to see them in Winter) and dangerous. They tried it in Australia and the trucks blew up, lets see what happens here.
I will await the many tears that will start to flow.
Waste of our time and money, these things will NEVER be as reliable and cheap to run as a diesel lorry, electric pile of scrap soon to be in a toxic waste site getting ready to explode.
You are utterly clueless sir.
@@Simon-dm8zv Hahahahaha.. time will tell, and if your a salesman of these things best get a job selling scalextric with trucks.
@@JackOfski Time has already told us. You could have said that 10 years ago.
You will need 2 of these overweight things for every 1 supermarket delivery truck due to the lack of range and charge time, and as for UK tramping forget it!! no where will you be able to charge a 44 tonne truck as you would need some 10000 charging points around the UK with the ROOM to get the trucks in, dream on and keeping taking that medication you're on.
@@JackOfski Again, you have no idea about the real numbers. The vast majority of all trucks will be battery electric. There is no other solution to lower CO2 emissions fast.
Lol
Still charged by fossil fuel.
Barely.
Very much a last gasp for the desperate promoting of the dying EV culture as it is already too late . Everyone knows the dream is over!

It's a positive that our air quality will improve. But this video is a bunch of overpaid office monkeys speaking in riddles, whilst crediting themselves for coming up with a scheme to buy a few eHGV's. Surely the credit lies with the designers & R&D depts associated with actually creating the trucks?
Can't wait to see the pyrotechnics when all that carbon footprint goes up in flames.
For every one EV that is on fire there are 8000 ICE cars that already destroyed from fire and killed the passengers.
@@chrishar110 Yes because there are a lot more of them and I doubt that many of them spontaneously combusted . I won't ask.
@@simontemplarGB Wrong, the numbers are proportional. EVs burn far less often.
@@simontemplarGB I know that I can't change your mind. You are a hater and you can't understand, sorry, you don't want to understand. Sorry, live in your bubble.
@@chrishar110 Where and over what time period did these cars burn?
At some point you have to stop and ask: "Just what is it that EV's are supposed to be saving us from?" There is one question that is never addressed that would expose the "climate crisis" for the scam that it is, which is "What percentage of the atmosphere is CO2?" The answer, never given in plain language, is that CO2 is currently around 420 parts per million, (google it) increased, they tell us, from 280 ppm in 1850. That's a difference of 140 ppm, or in terms more readily understood by the layman, the composition of the atmosphere has changed by 0.014% (14 thousandths of 1%) in the last 170 years. LESS THAN 1 THOUSANDTH OF 1% PER DECADE! How much closer to "zero" do they think it's possible to get? How gullible do you have to be to believe that this rate of change is causing extreme weather events, which have always happened and always will? Their claim is that this tiny amount "traps heat". ALL gasses dissipate heat and even if CO2 is an exception, the suggestion that a total of 0.042% can overwhelm the capacity of the remaining 99.958% to dissipate that heat is abject nonsense. CO2 DOES NOT control the global temperature, there is no "climate crisis". Wind farms, solar panels, heat pumps, EV's.. None of these measures are necessary, nor will they have the slightest effect on the weather. Eye-watering sums of money have already been wasted on this futile exercise. Time to wake up, stop throwing our money at these boondoggles and squandering the world's resources on projects that cannot possibly succeed as there never was a problem to begin with. There is no need to save the planet from a minuscule increase in the gas on which all life depends, but it does need to be rescued from idiot politicians and media mouthpieces that push this garbage. Learn the truth here: czcams.com/video/s3Tfxiuo-oM/video.html
You could have saved yourself typing an utterly long comment full of bollocks if you just informed yourself beforehand. This CO2 ppm story myth is really climate science noob level 1.
@@Simon-dm8zv Our annual emissions equate to no more than a couple of extra CO2 molecules per tree leaf on the planet, let alone every other species of flora on land and sea.. Nature circulates far more than our annual emissions every few days, rendering our contribution to background noise. Then consider that every living thing on the planet on the land, in the sea and in the air is composed of carbon compounds that were once in the air as CO2. The claim that it is only our "emissions" that remain in the air and accumulate year on year, nature cannot cope with our contribution or that the carbon cycle was somehow magically in perfect equilibrium before we started to burn coal and oil is a complete fairy tale designed to fool the gullible. And here you are.

Good morning everyone how come none of the political buses are electric. Can you answer me that . Thanks for reading .
Reform will scrap net zero so why would they have one, as for the others their philosophy is do what we say not what we do, has that answered it for you!
How do you decarbonise the mining for the rare metals needed to make the batteries? I think batteries will be there one day but they are not there yet. One the other hand you have to live with less perfect tecnology untill it advances and they find more enviroment ways of making the batterys.
Electric vehicles produce far less carbon during their life, no matter what. We are there already.
Gridserve need to tell their customers how to get out of the airport without incurring Gatwick airport parking charges. The exit signs are not clear, and having to take a ticket from the parking barrier just to get to the exit is confusing for weary travellers - even if it doesn't incur further cost.
No Tesla cybertruck nonsense tthis side of the pond.
No thanks never battery electic
Oh yes, you too will drive electric in the future.
Local skip company had one on a trail, it was 2 ton heavier so couldn’t carry as much, went flat in about 4 hours on local work. Charge time was about 3 hours plus They got rid of it very quickly 😂
My mate is a skip lorry driver and his firm are getting one next week...I doubt it will be there for long.
Ludicrous😩1/3 of the payload lost carting round a stupid battery. Are these people real
Indeed,most firms will simply not buy them.
😅 Yay lets learn how to queue in an orderly fashion cos us brits have never learnt that.......
We got electric rigids 😂😂 has a 120 mile range
The devil is in the detail and this missive is filled with none but lots of generalities. High-powered charging to double-shift. How much demand will such charging make on the grid supplying this one depot? De-carbonising our fleet. What tonnage of CO2 is generated by the gathering of resources, assembly and manufacture, lifetime use, and final disposal of each electric truck when compared to its diesel equivalent? Bullshit. All of it bullshit.
These a big sign saying :idiots queuing here;
It’s only carbon free if you use renewable energy..not gas powered electricity stations..all your doing is pushing carbon use on to another company 🤗
Even if you make power with a gas power station, you still can be up to 10 times more efficient than a diesel truck.
We need more carbon are you all lemmings
The money, time and effort wasted on "decarbonising" is a crime against humanity. Co2 is not a problem, there is no climate crisis, this is the biggest fraud ever perpetrated and an environmental disaster. Just think how humankind would have been served if the greedy perpetrators and control freaks had not been allowed to jump on the bandwagon of pseudo science and grow their wealth and dictatorial craving on its back.
Stop embarrassing yourself
@@Simon-dm8zv Get your head out of the sand and stop believing all the tripe you're fed. Use your brain and consider the validity of all the scientific evidence that's being suppressed, not just the establishment propaganda that's thrown at you. 50 years of failed predictions of doom, and still you believe?
How many days will it take to extinguish a fire? How many days will the road be closed?
Where is the power coming from to “charge” all these vehicles?

We wont be scammed by goernments any more we demand the truth
They are expensive and can't be used 24 7 as they will have to be changed up they won't last long and when the battery is knackered the replacement cost will be astronomical absolute garbage
That's what you say, I can say that they will pay the extra cost in 2-3 years. They can be used 24/7 because even if they have two drivers that work on 12 hours shifts, the drivers need time to brief-debrief (30 minsper shift), do their checks (min 30 more min per shift), they need breaks (at least 45 mins for a normal 9 driving hours shift and a 12 hours shift) and they need time at the bays to load-unload. At my job we make 12 hours shifts but we drive 5-8 hours max. All the rest is working or waiting time. Newer batteries last for over 300k miles and even if they have a faulty cell they can replace that faulty cell pretty cheap and can returm to the depot the naxt day. If you have thousands of EV trucks you can invest in these things and minimise the costs. Absolutely usefull, finally we won't stuck on our bikes or walking, in center of cities, behind a lorry and breath pure cancer.
I could do my job with one of these. It would be flat half way through the shift. I read somewhere that these had a range of about 300km if that. I Hope the drivers carrying night out kit. He will need it.
AND the milage will fall with age.
Environmentalists have latched onto the crazy idea that carbon dioxide (CO2) is some type of pollutant. It is not. It is a natural component in the atmosphere, always has been, and it is the "food" that all trees, plants and crops "absorb" from the air to grow and thrive. That is why the planet is getting greener with increased CO2 in the atmosphere. Anyone who has ever studied horticulture knows that there is one surefire way to make plants grow faster in a greenhouse - you pump CO2 gas into the greenhouse.
Just because you think CO2 is not a problem because of these reasons proves you have no idea what you are talking about.
