“Having seen firsthand the exponential growth in EVs and EV charge points here in the UK and across Europe in recent years, I’m fully aware of the challenges that exist for industry in sourcing power from constrained or non-existent power grids.  Having worked alongside AFC Energy over the past year in my previous position, I’m confident the solution AFC Energy offers industry is not only an enabler for the deployment of the country’s EV ambitions, but also presents a sustainable alternative which is an increasingly exciting opportunity not only for the Company but for me personally” said Mr. Pollard.   

Adam Bond, Chief Executive Officer at AFC Energy, said “The growing number of inbound enquiries into AFC Energy’s H-Power EV Charging solution through the success of our recent national roadshow has been welcomed and has driven the need to commence recruitment of new sales and commercial capability to further enhance our go-to market capabilities.  Tom presents us not only with enthusiasm and knowledge of the sector, but also a network of contacts across our industry second to none and his willingness to join us in this journey to support the decarbonisation of the UK’s transportation sector further validates the opportunities we are now seeing in this exciting growth market for AFC Energy”.
