Overpopulation is the problem. 8 billion currently compares to 2 billion in 1930.Global warming is imminent, in fact it has already started. |
I do believe in man-made climate change. It's just that renewable energy isn't going to solve the problem. Far from it. |
YouTube if you want to dearie, or you could start to think for yourself. |

Of course I disagree - even if you don't believe in man- made- climate change ! Surely you must agree everyone has a right to breath clean air !. Clean air = less people in hospital with lung related issues.
What make him a Expert in telling us what to do and think ?. |
https://youtu.be/lWn4bWr5IH4?si=58REDnypsco88X1BWhy are politicians ignoring the facts. Net Zero is never going to happen. Just listen to this expert.Policies have to change otherwise energy bills will skyrocket over the next few years!Let's start by admitting that the EV market is turning into a disaster area. |
geoff sums it up well |
wish i'd shorted this POOP |

Podpoint are well positioned to capitalise on building the infrastructure to support all these cheap Chinese EV's that will be flooding the market. |

https://youtu.be/K8Nz-4eEBTw?si=wzQvxaDBrwy-EOu2This is worth watching. Tells you all you need to know about the EV market. |
I bought my EV three years ago and it's worth a fraction of what I paid for it. No chance of me buying another.Meanwhile the Labour Party are still sticking to their 2030 deadline. Don't they know there aren't enough mines in the world to produce the rare earth metals needed to make all these vehicles. |
The UK as a nation is unimpressed - road tax comes in on EVs, and added to that a £400 levy on EVs over £40k. Added to that EVs are expensive. Oh and the inventives were withdrawn in 2022.Then there is infrastructure; you live in a flat or a terraced street, no chance. Maybe if you buy a new house, but then there is the macro; interedt rates are heavy, borrowing is expensive.Personally I like pod point and think they will weather the storm - also an average of 24p, so like is tempered by no choice. However, I like the share price and it makes sense given the macro. I also suspect it can get even cheaper if growth continues to trudge and worse, if we are drawn into a recession by the gov. and/or the BoE.Nonetheless, today Rachel Reeves speaks (uh oh) about actual growth. |
The market is unimpressed ? |
all well and good, but when are they going to make money for shareholders? |
 New Energy Flex market entered
Pod Point first to sell in wholesale energy market under new P415 regulations
Pod Point, a leading provider of Electric Vehicle ('EV') charging solutions in the UK, is pleased to announce that it has entered a new energy flex market and is the first company to sell energy in wholesale markets under the new P415 regulation. The P415 regulation allows companies who are not energy suppliers to sell wholesale energy as a Virtual Trading Party ("VTP").
Entry into new Energy Flex market - Wholesale market
Pod Point has now entered the Wholesale market in the UK ahead of schedule. Entry into the Wholesale market provides Pod Point with access to the largest segment of the flex market.
This demonstrates further rapid progress in line with the strategy to enter all the major Energy Flex markets, with the Group already operating business-as-usual Energy Flex in the Distribution System Operator and Capacity Markets.
On 23rd December 2024, Pod Point became the first company to sell energy on wholesale electricity markets under P415, generating revenue for the Group. Pod Point is working with a VTP, providing the Group with another incremental high margin revenue stream to support its customer lifetime value model by rewarding customers for smart charging their car.
Largest UK chargepoint network
Pod Point recently announced that it has more than 250,000 EV chargers - the largest estate for demand flexibility in the UK - which provides a substantial "back book" of customers who can be offered rewards for smart charging.
Demand flexibility: win-win-win for customer, the Grid and Pod Point
Wholesale electricity prices rise during high demand, such as at 6pm on a windless evening, and fall when there's excess supply, say at 2am on a windy night. EV chargers can help stabilize the grid by pausing charging during peaks and shifting to greener, off-peak times. This flexibility supports Net Zero by enabling more renewable energy; it helps grid partners reduce costs and avoid capex; and Pod Point to create high value recurring revenues.
Melaine Lane, Chief Executive Officer, said:
"Our entry into the Wholesale market represents another important milestone in Pod Point's Energy Flex strategy and creates further momentum in building recurring revenues for the Group. It's another example of Pod Point taking the lead in Energy Flex as the first company to take advantage of this new regulation. We have the largest Energy Flex enabled chargepoint network in the UK, with over a quarter of a million chargers, providing significant scale and relevance to the Grid. Pod Point has delivered a huge amount of progress in Energy Flex over the last 12 months, and we have further exciting plans for this emerging market in the next 12 months."
