Surrey County Council begin the latest Gul-e trial
ODS is delighted to welcome Surrey County Council as the latest local authority to join the trial of the innovative Gul-e solution, which makes charging electric vehicles (EVs) at households, without driveways, a reality.
Surrey joins six other forward-thinking local authorities to trial the solution:
Oxfordshire County Council
Cherwell District Council
Central Bedfordshire Council
London Borough of Bromley
Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council
Buckinghamshire Council
Bloor Homes is also taking part in the trial at a new development in Bristol.
The Gul-e solution is part of an overarching strategy to address the anticipated surge in EV adoption and allows for a cheaper, safer, and secure at-home charging solution, that does not cause a trip hazard to the public.
Local Authorities or developers interested in trialling Gul-e in their locality, and positioning themselves at the forefront of sustainable and forward-looking transportation infrastructure, should contact gul-e@odsgroup.co.uk or call Lewis Dixon on 01865 335400
