    In this episode, Kenny talks to James McKemey from Pod Point about the EV charging ecosystem and the work they are doing to support the mass adoption of electric vehicles in the UK and Ireland. Founded in 2009, Pod Point is a charging infrastructure provider, committed to building the charging solutions we need to enable mass adoption of electric vehicles. We talk about why home and workplace charging is the future EV solution and why we still have to defend the purchase of an EV because of its charge time.

    Infrastructure Innovators: Financing the worlds most powerful tidal turbine

    In May of this year, the Orbital O2 tidal powered turbine was sailed out of Dundee, Scotland bound for its home off the coast of the Orkney Islands.

    Mental Health & Infrastructure: World Mental Health Day special with Nick Chism of IPFA and Paul Farmer of MIND

    Working in Infrastructure can be enormously demanding. We work under tight deadlines. We deal with complex problems. There's no question that the pressure of the work that we do can have an adverse effect on our mental health.  In recognition of World Mental Health day we are sharing a conversation that Nick Chism, chair of the IPFA recently had with Paul Farmer, CEO of Mind, the UK's leading mental health charity.  This interview was originally published by the IPFA as part of their "Our Voices, Our Stories" series.  This conversation is useful and insightful precisely because it deals with mental health in the context of the work we do in infrastructure.   We're really grateful to the IPFA for allowing us to share this conversation with you.  IPFA is the leading association for infrastructure and energy professionals world wide. We highly recommend that you check them out at https://www.ipfa.org/ Find out more about MIND at https://www.mind.org.uk Special thanks to Daisy Brooker and Madeline Lowe of the IPFA.  This episode was edited and mixed by Bren Russell.
