Gul-e by ODS was born out of the need to develop a safe and reliable solution to EV home charging in Oxford, after Oxford City Council identified a growing wave of problems experienced by residents without driveways.
Equipped with in-depth knowledge and experience of highway legislation and challenges, the team at ODS used their robust capabilities to develop the Gul-e pavement gully charging solution for Oxford’s residents. And now, Gul-e supports other Local Authorities around the country to do the same.
Catch up on the recent discussion between Gul-e’s Project Lead, Lewis Dixon, and Gary Comerford for The Pavement Charging episode on The EV Musings Podcast.
