How GRIDSERVE is building the UK's electric freight network

This bonus MOVE Monday episode of Drivetime features Sam Clarke, Advisor and Brand Ambassador at GRIDSERVE, discussing one of the biggest challenges on the

road to net zero: electrifying heavy goods vehicles. With more than 20 years in the EV industry, Sam shares how a £62.7 million government-backed project is helping accelerate the adoption of electric HGVs across the UK.

From deploying 161 electric trucks and building depot charging infrastructure to creating a nationwide public charging network, he explains what it takes to turn ambition

into reality. The conversation explores the practical challenges of decarbonising freight, why collaboration across logistics, infrastructure and OEMs is essential, and whether technologies like hydrogen and synthetic fuels still have a role to play. It's a fascinating look at how the freight industry is tackling one of transport's toughest

decarbonisation challenges and building the infrastructure needed for the next generation of commercial mobility.
