Fully Charged FRIENDS feat. Juliet Davenport

Ever since Robert filmed his first pilot for the Fully Charged SHOW, some 12 years ago, he’s always wanted to record a podcast in front of a small, high quality audience. Well in this week’s edition of the Fully Charged Podcast he does just that.

Joined by Fully Charged CEO Dan Caesar and presenter Imogen Pierce, this pilot of the new Fully Charged FRIENDS video podcast showcases a new format that will begin rolling out from April 2023.

This week’s special guest and long-term friend of Fully Charged is Juliet Davenport OBE, former CEO of Good Energy and current Chair of Atrato Onsight Energy, which focuses on commercial solar rooftops. Alongside being on the board of EV charging company Connected Kerb, Juliet has also recently published The Green Start-Up which brings her extensive industry knowledge and experience together to help guide founders and business through the journey of making their organisations greener and better for the planet.

The Hard Truth About Nuclear Power

The Hard Truth About Nuclear Power

Since its inception, Nuclear Power has split opinion and so we thought it was time to explore why, and ask if Nuclear has a place in a net zero future.

Whilst renewable power such as wind and solar will always come up on top, their intermittency might leave space for this zero carbon often controversial power source, to make up at least a fraction of the grid.

Rising energy prices, managing nuclear waste and a plight for energy security and it looks like we may well have to ask ourselves some serious questions about Nuclear. Join Dr Helen Czerski as she finds out more.

This Chinese EV Is Going To Be A HUGE HIT In Europe

Elliot takes a look at the brilliant (if unfortunately) named Seal from BYD.

With sleek design inside and out, punchy performance and packing some seriously innovative engineering, this looks to be one of the most complete EVs to come out of China this year.

With first deliveries to Europe scheduled for late ’22, could this be one of the first Chinese electric cars to become a smash hit overseas?
