We've got a great show lined up for you today. We're talking about something near and dear to our hearts: EV charging stations.
In this episode, we'll talk about the differences between the types of chargers, where they're installed, and the types of equipment they use. Along with Rue for the ride this week is James Tillman of Brytemove.
James has been in the automotive and mobility space for twenty years, focusing on EV since 2009.
James previously worked with NRG to develop an L2 network to support future EVs and with Nissan to make Houston a first-wave launch city for the Nissan LEAF with the promise of a comprehensive DC Fast Charging Network. In 2010 James became the fifth employee of the newly launched EVgo.
He is a pioneer in Mobility as a Service (MaaS) platform and the optimization and electrification of fleets working for startups Vision Fleet and Evercar.
His current role at Brytemove energy (formerly known as MaxGen Energy Services) is to develop relationships across the industry and uncover growth opportunities for the company.
