    In this episode of the Everything Electric podcast, Robert is joined by fellow presenter Imogen Bhogal. What starts as a quick catch-up soon descends into a slightly unhinged conversation about the surprising return of the Freelander as an EV joint venture in China, the staggering energy demands of AI and data centres including battery systems measured in tens of gigawatt-hours that rival the power consumption of entire cities, and Robert's unexpected VW fandom...!   Links to stories:  https://electrek.co/2026/03/31/freelander-suv-reborn-sharp-off-road-ev-images/    https://electrek.co/2026/03/30/toyotas-new-luxury-ev-china-receives-3100-orders-in-1-hour/    https://electrek.co/2026/03/27/used-ev-sales-boom-new-ev-sales-drop-28-percent-q1-2026/    https://electrek.co/2026/03/26/byd-recruits-james-bond-launch-new-longe-range-luxury-ev/    https://www.utilitydive.com/news/worlds-largest-grid-battery-part-of-google-xcel-energy-agreement/813793/    00:00 – Intro: A "First Best" Guest?!  01:35 – Freelander Returns?!

    The full trio, Robert Llewellyn, Imogen Bhogal and Jack Scarlet reunite for a gloriously chaotic catch-up and debrief! First up: a proper Welsh adventure in three of the UK's most affordable EVs; the BYD Dolphin, Citroën ë-C3 and Leapmotor T03. The cars? Impressively modern. The rural charging infrastructure? Occasionally… nostalgic. They delve into password dramas, charger roulette, and what budget EV life really looks like in 2026.    They also chat about Jack's Kia world exclusive and sub 20 degrees conditions in Norway while testing the EV2. Meanwhile, Robert reflects on how Volvo Cars now talks about EVs as simply "cars", the huge cultural shift he's been waiting for!    Plus: solar megaprojects in Australia, gravity storage from Green Gravity, birthday cake… and Jack's big Japan sabbatical announcement...! 00:00:11 Intro: The 97th Take 00:01:21 Imogen's Paris Trip & Renault Brand CEO Interview  00:03:07 The Future of Small EVs and the Renault Espace  00:07:38 Robert's Australia Trip: Solar Farms and Gravity Storage  00:10:12 The Wales Road Trip: Small EVs vs. Rural Infrastructure  00:12:12 The "Charging Nightmare" and Offensive Passwords  00:16:47 World Exclusive: Testing the Kia EV2 in Norway  00:19:50 Surviving -20°C: Tales from the Norwegian Range Test  00:22:15 Jack's Big Sabbatical: Heading to Japan  00:23:12 Launch FOMO: Ioniq 6, Polestar 5, and More  00:27:58 Volvo's "Early Adopters" Advert and Normalising EVs  00:30:43 Five Years of Change: From Niche to "Just a Car"  00:31:51 Renault's Hybrid Strategy vs. Pure Electric  00:34:04 Birthday Reflections 00:35:56 Robert's Wisdom: Am I the A**hole?  00:38:35 Final Wrap-Up and Live Events Info   Why not come and join us at our next Everything Electric expo: www.everythingelectric.show    Check out our sister channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/EverythingElectricShow Support our StopBurningStuff campaign: https://www.patreon.com/STOPBurningStuff Become an Everything Electric Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fullychargedshow Become a YouTube member: use JOIN button above Buy the Fully Charged Guide to Electric Vehicles & Clean Energy : https://buff.ly/2GybGt0 Subscribe for episode alerts and the Everything Electric newsletter: https://fullycharged.show/zap-sign-up/ Visit: https://FullyCharged.Show Find us on X: https://x.com/Everyth1ngElec Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/officialeverythingelectric To partner, exhibit or sponsor at our award-winning expos email: commercial@fullycharged.show   EE NORTH (Harrogate) - 8th & 9th May 2026  EE WEST (Cheltenham) - 12th & 13th June 2026 EE GREATER LONDON (Twickenham) - 11th & 12th Sept 2026 EE SYDNEY - Sydney Olympic Park - 18th - 20th Sept 2026

    Can Everyone Go Electric? (Without Rebuilding the Grid...)

    In this episode of the Everything Electric Podcast, Robert Llewellyn is joined by Tim Jarratt, Executive for External Affairs & Strategy at Ausgrid, to unpack what's actually happening to our power networks, and why electric vehicles may not be the biggest challenge after all. While much of the world debates EV adoption, Australia is already living through a quiet energy revolution. Nearly 40% of Australian homes now have rooftop solar, turning the traditional one-way grid into a complex, two-way system where your neighbour might be powering your kettle.   Tim explains how Ausgrid is rethinking the grid from the ground up, squeezing more capacity from existing infrastructure, rolling out community batteries, and planning for a future shaped by data centres, electric transport, and millions of small power producers.     Why not come and join us at our next Everything Electric expo: www.everythingelectric.show    To partner, exhibit or sponsor at our award-winning expos email: commercial@fullycharged.show   EE NORTH (Harrogate) - 8th & 9th May 2026  EE WEST (Cheltenham) - 12th & 13th June 2026  EE GREATER LONDON (Twickenham) - 11th & 12th Sept 2026 EE SYDNEY - Sydney Olympic Park - 18th - 20th Sept 2026

    Renault CEO on Affordable EVs, Regulation, and Europe's Small Car Future

    Is regulation slowing down affordable EVs and can iconic small cars help fix it?! In this episode of the Everything Electric Podcast, Imogen Bhogal sits down with Fabrice Cambolive, CEO of the Renault brand and Chief Growth Officer, at Renault's Techno Centre outside Paris. They discuss what it will really take to make electric vehicles affordable in Europe; from the rebirth of the Renault Twingo to the regulatory changes shaping the industry. Fabrice reveals that 25% of Renault's engineering capacity is currently focused on navigating shifting European regulations, arguing that greater stability (without compromising safety) would allow manufacturers to concentrate on lowering costs for consumers. The conversation also explores the proposed M1E category for compact EVs under 4.2 metres, potentially Europe's answer to Japan's kei cars, and why Renault has decided to continue pursuing hybrids alongside fully electric models. Finally, Fabrice explains why bringing back icons like the Renault 5, Renault 4, and Twingo is about more than nostalgia and is all about trust, loyalty, and long-term value in an increasingly competitive market (ergo. China..) 00:00 Intro & Welcome 01:42 What does CEO of the Brand mean? 06:08 Why Renault is still thinking about hybrids 08:48 "Pluggable" vs. "Non-pluggable" customers 13:11 The M1E Category: Europe's answer to the Kei car? 15:43 Why regulations drive up EV costs 17:05 Why the Renault Zoe was discontinued 20:52 Reimagining the Twingo 25:24 Leveraging nostalgia and icons 32:17 Renault vs. Dacia: Managing the brand overlap 35:58 The future of Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) 41:04 Fabrice's 2026 geopolitical magic wish Why not come and join us at our next Everything Electric expo: https://everythingelectric.show Check out our sister channel Everything Electric CARS: https://www.youtube.com/@fullychargedshow Support our StopBurningStuff campaign: https://www.patreon.com/STOPBurningStuff Become an Everything Electric Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fullychargedshow Become a YouTube member: use JOIN button above Buy the Fully Charged Guide to Electric Vehicles & Clean Energy : https://buff.ly/2GybGt0 Subscribe for episode alerts and the Everything Electric newsletter: https://fullycharged.show/zap-sign-up/ Visit: https://FullyCharged.Show Find us on X: https://x.com/Everyth1ngElec Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/officialeverythingelectric To partner, exhibit or sponsor at our award-winning expos email: commercial@fullycharged.show EE NORTH (Harrogate) - 8th & 9th May 2026 EE WEST (Cheltenham) - 12th & 13th June 2026 EE GREATER LONDON (Twickenham) - 11th & 12th Sept 2026 EE SYDNEY - Sydney Olympic Park - 18th - 20th Sept 2026 #fullychargedshow #everythingelectricshow #homeenergy #cleanenergy #battery #electriccars #electric-vehicles-uk #EverythingElectric #ElectricVehicles #EV #AffordableEV #Renault #Renault5 #Renault4 #Twingo #ElectricCars #EVNews #FutureOfMobility #CleanTransport #SustainableTransport #EuropeanEV #CityEV #SmallCars #EVPolicy #AutoIndustry #MobilityInnovation #EnergyTransition #EVPodcast

Aided and abetted by Dan, their discussion ranges from North America to China, and everything in between, including Davos; and whether any of these political dramas can really slow mega-trends like electrification, AI, and the rise of the robots.    Why not come and join us at our next Everything Electric expo: https://everythingelectric.show  To partner, exhibit or sponsor at our award-winning expos email: commercial@fullycharged.show EE NORTH (Harrogate) - 8th & 9th May 2026 EE WEST (Cheltenham) - 12th & 13th June 2026 EE GREATER LONDON (Twickenham) - 11th & 12th Sept 2026 EE SYDNEY - Sydney Olympic Park - 18th - 20th Sept 2026  Support our StopBurningStuff campaign: https://www.patreon.com/STOPBurningStuff  Become an Everything Electric Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fullychargedshow  Buy the Fully Charged Guide to Electric Vehicles & Clean Energy: https://buff.ly/2GybGt0  Subscribe for episode alerts and the Everything Electric newsletter: https://fullycharged.show/zap-sign-up/  Visit: https://FullyCharged.Show  Find us on X: https://x.com/Everyth1ngElec  Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/officialeverythingelectric

    The Real Reason Why Charging is SO Expensive...

    In this episode of the Everything Electric podcast, Imogen Bhogal sits down with Tom Hurst, UK Country Director for Fastned, to pull back the curtain on the UK's rapid charging revolution. Tom explains why Fastned is moving beyond simple "parking bays with plugs" to build high-visibility, amenity-first charging hubs that keep you sheltered from the rain and your battery topped up at speeds of up to 400kW. They also dive into the "mammoth" joint venture with Places for London (TfL's property arm) and why legal contracts, not just grid power, are often the biggest hurdle to a seamless charging experience.   00:00 Welcome to Everything Electric 01:40 Who is Fastned?

    The Battery Boom: Why Grid Storage Is the Backbone of Clean Power! | The Fully Charged Show Podcast

    Battery storage is booming — but how does it really work, and why does it matter? In this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Imogen sits down with Ed Porter from ⁨@modoenergy⁩ one of the UK's leading experts on battery energy storage systems (BESS), to demystify the critical role batteries are already playing in balancing the grid — and what's still to come. From frequency regulation and price arbitrage to blackouts and the path to clean power by 2030, we explore how grid-scale batteries are transforming our energy system faster than you think. Ed shares his insights on: Why batteries are replacing gas in grid services — and slashing costs. What dynamic frequency response actually means How the UK went from 0 to 5.3 GW of battery storage — and where we go from here Why the "1.5-hour" battery duration isn't a limitation, but a smart design choice How we plan to survive "Dunkelflaute" and keep the lights on in winter.
