The Fully Charged Podcast

In this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Imogen Bhogal sits down with Lars Reger, CTO of NXP Semiconductors, to explore the critical role that chips play in the electric vehicle revolution. With the average EV containing around 10,000 semiconductors - 10 times more than an combustion car, these tiny silicon components are doing some seriously heavy lifting — from power & energy management, control systems, security, connectivity to autonomous driving and increasing amounts of AI.   NXP supplies chips to major automotive players around the globe, giving Lars a front-row seat to the transformation of electric mobility from the incumbents, to the new players and beyond. Together, they delve into what it really means to create a software-defined vehicle, the future of self-driving and the need for energy-efficient AI. Lars also shares what can be learnt from the global chip shortage and how it can be avoided from happening again.

In this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Imogen sits down with Johan du Plessis, CEO and founder of Tepeo, to explore how his company is transforming zero-carbon home heating. Tepeo's Zero Emission Boiler (ZEB) is a smart, efficient, and affordable alternative to a heat pump, designed to seamlessly replace a traditional gas boiler without the need for costly home upgrades. The technology itself makes perfect sense, but building a climate tech business—let alone scaling one—is anything but simple. Johan delves into the key challenges and what’s needed to accelerate the adoption of electric heating, from tax incentives for heat batteries to making electricity more affordable. He also highlights the crucial role of energy storage in balancing the grid and unlocking a truly sustainable energy system. As the world moves toward full electrification, Johan shares his vision for the future of home heating and explains why innovation in this space is critical for a cleaner, greener planet.  @fullychargedshow   @EverythingElectricShow  https://www.tepeo.com/ https://youtu.be/y_v0midqPDc?si=BjGugw917SAE79Mz Why not come and join us at our next Everything Electric expo: https://everythingelectric.show Check out our sister channel: https://www.youtube.com/@fullychargedshow Support our StopBurningStuff campaign: https://www.patreon.com/STOPBurningStuff Become a Fully Charged SHOW Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fullychargedshow Buy the Fully Charged Guide to Electric Vehicles & Clean Energy : https://buff.ly/2GybGt0 Subscribe for episode alerts and the Fully Charged newsletter: https://fullycharged.show/zap-sign-up/ Visit: https://FullyCharged.Show Find us on X: https://x.com/Everyth1ngElec Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/fullychargedshow To partner, exhibit or sponsor at our award-winning expos email: [email protected] Everything Electric LONDON (UK) - ExCel - 16th, 17th & 18th April 2025 Everything Electric CANADA - Vancouver Convention Center - 5th, 6th & 7th September 2025 Everything Electric SOUTH (UK) - Farnborough International - 10th, 11th & 12th October 2025 Everything Electric AUSTRALIA VIC - 14th, 15th & 16th November 2025 #fullychargedshow  #everythingelectricshow #homeenergy #cleanenergy #battery #electriccars #electricvehicles

In this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Robert Llewellyn is joined by Adam Chapman, the Heat Geek himself, to dive into the future of heating our homes. Starting as a blog, Heat Geek has grown into a transformative training platform for thousands of heating engineers, teaching the physics of moving heat and how to design and install low carbon heating technologies like heat pumps. Robert and Adam discuss why hydrogen isn’t the future for home heating, the untapped potential of heat pumps, and how most homes don’t need major upgrades to make the switch. They explore how local tradespeople are pivotal to drive the clean energy transition, how we can break the psychological barriers to adopting new technologies to enable homeowners to start saving money, improve efficiency and reduce carbon! With 28 million homes to tackle, Heat Geek is on a mission—and the excitement about efficiency is contagious.

In this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, we shine a spotlight on the unsung hero of lithium-ion batteries: Graphite. As the key component of a battery’s anode, graphite plays a critical role in powering EVs and energy storage solutions. However, with over 95% of the world’s graphite refined in China, diversifying the supply chain is more important than ever. We delve into how companies like Quebec-based Nouveau Monde Graphite (NMG) are stepping up, promising carbon-neutral graphite—an ambitious goal for an industry reliant on mining and refining raw materials. The company, backed by supply agreements with GM and Panasonic, is working to determine whether the battery supply chain can truly go green and make sustainable mining a reality. Joining us is NMG CEO and founder Eric Desaulniers to explore these challenges and opportunities.

In this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, we dive into The Crown Estate's pivotal role in the UK’s renewable energy transition. As custodians of the seabed surrounding England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, they’re powering 11 million homes with offshore wind energy. Imogen explores how their latest initiatives, like the Marine Delivery Routemap, are tackling grid bottlenecks, speeding up consents, and finding harmony between environmental conservation and renewable expansion. Gus Jaspert, Managing Director for Marine at The Crown Estate, breaks down the UK’s energy puzzle—from wrangling stakeholders like NESO and Ofgem to resolving spatial clashes with fisheries and shipping. With a need for over 120GW by 2030 requiring a tripling of wind energy deployment, how will the race to net-zero electricity unfold?

In this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Robert explores the world of tyres with Gunnlaugur Erlendsson, CEO and Founder of ENSO. With billions of tyres in use globally, most made from fossil-fuel-derived synthetic rubber, the environmental impact is staggering. Tyre wear releases six million tonnes of microscopic particles annually—accounting for 28% of primary microplastics in our oceans—and contributes more to air pollution than vehicle tailpipes. ENSO is taking on this challenge with innovative, low cost, durable, high-efficiency tyres specifically designed for electric vehicles (EVs). These advanced tyres produce 35% less pollution and can also extend EV range, setting a new standard for sustainability in the automotive industry.

On this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Robert welcomes Texan Sharon Wilson. Sharon began her career in the oil & gas industry but is now a leading figure in "methane hunting." As a certified optical gas imaging thermographer, she travels across the U.S., exposing the invisible methane pollution from oil and gas facilities. Sharon uses this technology to educate policymakers, media, and industry leaders through tours. Sharon's dedication to documenting methane emissions and advocating for environmental accountability arose from a personal experience. Unaware of the environmental impact, she purchased 42 acres in Wise County, Texas, bordering the LBJ National Grasslands. Unbeknownst to her, George Mitchell was experimenting with fracking techniques in the area. Witnessing firsthand the devastating effects of fracking, with air turning brown and water turning black, she documented her experience on her blog, texassharon.com. This experience led Sharon and her son to relocate to Denton, Texas, seeking a cleaner environment. However, this move ultimately fueled her passion for environmental advocacy. In 2010, she joined Earthworks' Oil & Gas Accountability Project, making it her life's work. Enjoy Sharon's incredible story!
