This week, Paul and Sara sit down with Becky Lalanne, Managing Director of Voqa, a new entrant in the UK EV charging market. Becky shares how Voqa is tackling the challenge of destination charging, introducing a 7–22kW AC charger with built-in contactless payments, designed to make charging effortless for drivers and more commercially viable for venues.
The conversation covers:
- The frustrations of current destination charging and how Voqa addresses them
- Why tethered AC chargers and tap-to-pay improve the driver experience
- Voqa's approach to designing its own hardware for reliability and ease of maintenance
- The revenue-share model and business case for hotels, co-working spaces, and leisure venues
- Insights into Becky's career journey from Red Bull cliff diving events to EV innovation
They also discuss future-proofing the UK charging network, the role of installers, and why putting the driver at the heart of design is key to accelerating electrification.
