What’s it all about?Hot on the heels of their recent announcement of a £110m fundraise, I catch up with Be.EV CEO and Co-Founder Asif Ghafoor. We talk all things emobility, disruptive markets, fundraising, company culture, entrepreneur insanity and community-based EV charging hubs, and much more. About Asif Ghafoor: After 25 years working in UK infrastructure investment, Asif co-founded Be.EV to change the way public EV charging infrastructure is delivered: faster, fairer, rooted in local communities and nice to look at. Today, Be.EV is the fastest-growing public EV charging network in the North. It has just won the backing of Octopus Energy Generation, who are investing up to £110m to dramatically scale the network and take it national. It’s Octopus’ first investment in EV charging - and comes with a target of delivering 1,000 new charge points by 2024.About Be.EV.:Be.EV is the largest EV charging network across Greater Manchester, and is expanding at a rapid pace across the north of England in order to make charging simple, reliable, and effortless. They work closely with the communities in which they operate and were appointed by TfGM in 2019 to grow and maintain the city-region’s publicly owned EV charging network. This included a major upgrade of the existing network as well as the delivery of additional public and private funded chargers. Their mission is to give all drivers what they want: more chargers, in more places that they can access more easily and more cost-effectively.Social links: Asif Ghafoor on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/asif-ghafoor-095486/ Be.EV. website: https://be-ev.co.uk/ Be.EV. on Twitter: https://twitter.com/BeEV_Charging Be.EV. on Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/company/be-ev/ Be.EV. on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Be.EVchargingnetwork About Hyperion Cleantech Group:Hyperion Cleantech Group is the holding company for businesses focused exclusively in cleantech talent acquisition, retention, leadership development. working with some of the most innovative cleantech companies in the world, helping to find extraordinary talent to enable their growth and success.

What’s it all about?I love this stuff!! Smart grids for the home, community and beyond. I also love when entrepreneurs from a fossil fuel, or ‘dirty’ world see the light and create great cleantech businesses. Never has energy been a bigger topic in the average household. The silver lining in the present energy and inflation crisis is that cleantech solutions make even more financial sense, as well as reducing carbon emissions. I talk to Alex about his business, his technology and the future of the Grid.About Alex Bazhinov: An inventor and entrepreneur, Alex is driven by the vision of the energy grid that encompasses the many distributed energy resources. He had the idea for Lumin while tending to his first start up, DreamPower, which he founded at the University of Virginia’s iLab while earning his graduate degree at UVA’s Darden School of Business. Alex hails from Moscow, Russia, where he held senior finance positions in global firms–spending six years at Norilsk Nickel, the world’s largest nickel and palladium producer, and as CFO at the global manufacturing conglomerate, Sandvik.Alex’s passion for a business challenge is aligned with his concern for the planet, having witnessed first-hand the negative impact of fossil fuel production around the world. When not chasing patents, Alex is busy at home with three young children and looks forward to his next sailing trip with his wife and first mates in training.About Lumin:Lumin® is the pioneer and market leader for responsive load management, adding exceptional value to residential microgrids by balancing home energy supply and demand.

What’s it all about?Disruption, I love cleantech disruption, and if ever there was a market that needed disruption it was car rental. On so many levels. And that is exactly what Aidan McClean has done. We talk about that, but also the transition from corporate to start-up life, the challenges of starting from scratch, fundraising, hiring, family life, EV and Clean Energy myths and host of other topics in this fascinating chat. My first podcast recorded in a Tesla Model 3 too.About Aidan McClean: Aidan McClean is an entrepreneur and clean technology investor who co-founded the world’s first all-digital all-electric car rental company, UFODRIVE. He is passionate about exposing the truths beyond the hype around the rise of electric vehicles. His extensive research led to him writing his explosive book ELECTRIC REVOLUTION, published in March 2022. A keen cyclist and outdoorsman, Aidan was not an early adopter or advocate for electric vehicles, or particularly aware of environmental matters. However, the more he researched air pollution, climate change and the impact of fossil fuel-powered vehicles, the more passionate he became about the role electric vehicles will play in averting the impending climate disaster.About UFO DriveAidan left behind a successful 25-year career in the financial services sector in 2017 to found UFODRIVE with his business partner and COO, Renaud Marquet. UFODRIVE was born out of a desire to help accelerate the move to clean mobility and a passion for great customer experience, guided by the following principles: easy booking; no queuing; no paperwork; great cars; transparent, all-inclusive, simple pricing; no confusing insurance options; no refuelling; and great value for money.McClean and Marquet set out to examine the car rental business in detail and understand what customers really want. In tandem they studied the coming revolution in electric cars. By combining the smartphone revolution with the coming electric car revolution, UFODRIVE has developed something unique. Its car rental location - the ‘UFO Landing Bay’ - is where customers can arrive and drive – all with just their smartphone. UFODRIVE now has 18 locations across 8 countries in Europe with many more opening, including in North America and beyond.In February 2022, UFODRIVE announced a $19m series A investment round, led by Hertz. Following blind-tests of the UFODRIVE platform, the global car rental giant had decided that it was the future of direct-to-car, contactless, electric car rental. Hertz will use the UFODRIVE Software as a Service (SaaS) platform for the end-to-end management of its new fleet.Social linksAidan McClean on LinkedIn: (99+) Aidan McClean | LinkedInAidan McClean on Twitter Aidan McClean (@AidanMcClean) / TwitterAidan McClean website: Aidan McCleanUFO Drive website: UFODRIVE | Radically Better Car Rental | Easy, Exciting & ElectricUFO Drive on Twitter: UFODRIVE (@UFODriveTweets) / TwitterUFO Drive on Instagram: UFODRIVE - A Better Car Rental (@ufodrive) • Instagram photos and videosEPISODE LINKS ELECTRIC REVOLUTION: Myths & Truths about Electric Vehicles and Climate Disaster ELECTRIC REVOLUTION: Myths & Truths about Electric Vehicles and Climate Disaster: Amazon.co.uk: McClean, Aidan: 9789998790216: BooksFollow us online, write a review (please) or subscribeI'm very keen to hear feedback on the podcast and my guests, and to hear your suggestions for future guests or topics.
