Air Core managing director Brendan Boyd said, “As renewable energy generation increases across both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, this investment will help both accelerate the electrification of the transport sector and create higher demand for renewable energy. The use of fossil fuels and combustion engines continues to diminish, with companies such as EasyGo being the future for a fully decarbonised world. We are delighted to have had the opportunity to invest in EasyGo”
Crucially, the involvement of Air Core, Rubicon Capital Advisors and DunPort Capital Management provides EasyGo with the ability to invest, install and maintain public EV chargers across Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.
Chris Kelly, director of EasyGo further commented “Northern Ireland has an acute need for charging points to service its growing number of EV drivers. As the largest privately-owned network on the island of Ireland, EasyGo is in a unique position to quickly roll out this much needed infrastructure. Our rapid charger network will ensure that EV drivers in Northern Ireland have access to best-in-class EV charging facilities”.
A typical rapid charger will add 100km of range to an EV in less than 15 minutes.
