Scaling EV Charging Infrastructure With A Little Help From AI

Scaling EV charging infrastructure is no easy task. But Marina Hod, Managing Director Americas at Wevo Energy, appears to be ready for the challenge ahead.


In this episode of The Urban EV Podcast, we discuss the role of AI in optimizing energy use, the importance of smart charging systems, and the future of EV charging technology. Marina shares insights on real-world successes, the integration of EV charging with existing infrastructure, and the significance of distributed energy resources in the evolving energy landscape.

From the challenges of grid stability to the promise of a frictionless EV charging experience, this episode is a roadmap to the future of mobility.

The  Urban EV Podcast is about electric vehicle ownership in a city -- and how that can be daunting when you don't have access to a plug. We explore urban charging infrastructure along with the day-to-day experience and economics of public charging your vehicle in a big city.

The TTAC Creators Series tells stories and amplifies creators from all corners of the car world, including culture, dealerships, collections, modified builds and more.

    AI = "we don't want to know anything, those days are long gone when smart people made intelligent, thoughtful decisions--no, we're going to drop our brains on the floor and use the modern equivalent of the Magic 8 Ball, because we just don't have time for making carefully considered decisions."

    NO TIME TO COMMENT I AM BUYING CRYPTO

  • EBFlex No....you can find plenty of used "fun" cars that are very reasonable with low miles.What does give me pause is the outrageous insurance and yearly registration fees. I shouldn't have to pay for a full year of road use when I can't use the car for half the year. Another factor is interest rates. The dolt that runs the fed is keeping them high for purely political reasons. They need to come down ASAP.
  • 1995 SC I actually really like these. I love the Busso V6. And I will continue to admire them in someone else's driveway like all Alfas. I really want a 4c, but I don't quite hate myself enough
  • 1995 SC I actually know a guy with one of these. Coolest Tercel ever. I don't mean anything derogatory by that.
  • 1995 SC A Miata can be had for under 30. GTIs are still reasonable as is the Jetta GLI. GR86 is reasonable. Plenty of choices out there. If you look at things like the Mustang now versus even back in the 90s sure, it costs more, but it's performance envelope is also vastly higher.
  • 1995 SC No. It gets great gas mileage.
