They already bought another electric vehicle charging company an EMSP which connects the users with the companies that have the charging stations. That seems to be going ok and the thing with the UK is the largest one owns like 90% of the stations so they basically have a stranglehold on the UK market. Also, I know one of their main (maybe largest) competitiors are running themselves into the ground.

- rkangel 6y ago> [in the UK] the largest one owns like 90% of the stations This article says that Ubitricity has the largest network of electric charging points. I can't reconcile that with your statement about 90%. Which provider were you referring to there?
- that_guy_iain 6y agoI can't remember the name, I've just sat in a bunch of business meetings where they kept saying the problem with the UK was we couldn't get access to the market because one company, whose name got mentioned a few times but not enough to remember, had 90% and wouldn't work with us or anyone because they make more money without partnerships. It could be the 90% are connected to a hub and the hub won't work with us. We have direct connections with CPOs (Charing Point Operators) and then we have connections with hubs, most of our CPOs come via a hub like Hubject.
