Why home charging could unlock the next wave of EV adoption
Notes de l’épisode
In this episode of Drivetime, host Jacqui is joined by Peter McDonald, Director of Ohme, to explore how home charging is reshaping the EV conversation for consumers,
retailers and OEMs. From his early career at Volkswagen and Nissan to his move into smart charging, Peter McDonald shares a practical view of what really drives EV adoption: cost, convenience and confidence. The discussion covers the economics of home charging, why off-road parking remains a major enabler, and how retailers can make EV sales easier by helping customers quickly understand whether home charging is right for them.
The episode also looks at smart tariffs, grid flexibility, electric vans, OEM partnerships and the future potential of vehicle-to-grid technology. For retailers, the message is clear: home charging is not just an add-on. It can be the key to helping more customers make the switch to electric.
