As we approach the end of 2024, we at Advanced EV are taking a moment to reflect on an incredible year of growth, innovation, and impact. It has been a defining year for us, filled with milestones that have solidified our position as one of the UK’s leading providers of EV charging solutions.
From installing advanced charging infrastructure across workplaces, public spaces, and fleet depots, to helping businesses of all sizes future-proof their operations, this year has been about pushing boundaries. Along the way, we’ve taken on challenges, embraced opportunities, and delivered on our commitment to driving the UK’s EV transition forward.
To give you a behind-the-scenes perspective, we also spoke to our co-founders, Ash and Reece, about the year’s achievements, challenges, and their vision for the future of the EV market.
Milestones That Shaped Our Year
2024 has been a year of major achievements for Advanced EV, with our expertise spanning diverse industries including hospitality, leisure, manufacturing, and logistics. We’ve worked with businesses large and small, delivering tailored charging solutions that meet their unique needs.
One of the highlights was collaborating with one of the UK’s largest leisure companies, rolling out charging infrastructure across 35 of their sites. This project demonstrated the scalability of our solutions and the value we bring to organisations seeking to offer EV charging to their customers.
Ash reflected on this achievement:
“Helping businesses of this scale embrace EV charging has been incredibly rewarding. It’s about more than just installing chargers—it’s about creating systems that deliver long-term value. Whether it’s increasing footfall, generating revenue, or enhancing sustainability credentials, we make sure our clients get more than just a plug point.”
We’ve also supported the hospitality sector, helping hotels and resorts tap into the growing demand for public charging facilities. By integrating our chargers with advanced management software, these businesses can now monitor usage, manage costs, and even generate income.
Reece shared his thoughts on this:
“The hospitality industry has been quick to see the benefits of EV charging. For many businesses, it’s about staying competitive in a market where customers increasingly expect these facilities. Our solutions not only meet that demand but also add an additional revenue stream, which is a win-win.”
Pioneering Fleet and Workplace Charging
Another key focus for us this year has been workplace and fleet charging. From helping manufacturers set up charging hubs for their logistics fleets to supporting corporate offices in offering workplace charging for employees, we’ve delivered solutions designed to improve efficiency and meet sustainability goals.
Ash commented:
“Fleet and workplace charging are game-changers for businesses looking to reduce emissions and operating costs. These projects require a different level of planning and expertise, and it’s something we’ve really excelled at this year.”
Our installations have ranged from rapid chargers designed for high turnover in fleet depots to standard workplace chargers that prioritise employee convenience. This flexibility is what sets Advanced EV apart—we deliver solutions tailored to the specific needs of each client.
Navigating Challenges and Seizing Opportunities
2024 wasn’t without its challenges. The ever-evolving landscape of OZEV grants kept us on our toes, as we worked to ensure clients could take full advantage of funding opportunities before deadlines expired.
Reece shared his perspective:
“Navigating the grant process is always complex, but our team rose to the challenge. It’s about giving businesses the confidence and support they need to move forward with EV charging. Seeing those installations go live, knowing we helped make it happen, is what makes it all worthwhile.”
Scaling our operations to meet the rising demand for EV charging was another test of our capabilities. However, through investment in our team, technology, and processes, we’ve ensured that every project—no matter how big or small—meets the high standards Advanced EV is known for.
The EV Market in 2024: Opportunities Abound
The UK’s EV market has seen explosive growth this year, with more businesses recognising the strategic value of investing in charging infrastructure. This shift is reshaping industries as businesses move beyond seeing EV charging as a convenience to understanding it as a necessity and a revenue driver.
Ash explained:
“We’ve seen a real shift in mindset this year. Businesses are no longer asking if they need EV charging—they’re asking how to make it work best for them. Whether it’s integrating solar and battery storage, or using advanced analytics to optimise charger usage, the conversation is becoming much more sophisticated.”
Reece added:
“The EV market is at an exciting tipping point. As adoption grows, so does the demand for smarter, more integrated solutions. This is where Advanced EV stands out—we’re not just keeping up with the market; we’re driving it forward.”
Looking Ahead to 2025
As we prepare for 2025, our focus is clear: continue leading the way in EV charging innovation. From enhancing our smart management platform to expanding our work in renewable energy integration, we’re committed to delivering solutions that not only meet the needs of today but anticipate the demands of tomorrow.
“2025 is going to be about building on this year’s momentum,” Ash said. “We’re ready to tackle even bigger projects and help more businesses make the EV transition with confidence.”
“Sustainability remains at the heart of everything we do,” Reece added. “Whether it’s solar-powered charging stations or workplace hubs, we’re committed to solutions that make a meaningful difference.”
