Dr. Aoife O'Grady:

It is all to do with getting high-speed electricity and energy to the particular point. If that is not available from the line at the moment, it often involves the creation and provision of a new substation to power the high-power charging. This is all handled by ESB Networks rather than us. A colleague who is acting as one of our advisers to ZEVI pointed out in the early days that electric vehicles are only 50% a transport problem; they are also 50% an energy and electricity problem. If we cannot get the electricity to where it needs to be for the right price for the right system, then we have nothing to power EVs.
