They explore the discrepancies between what chargers report and what is actually delivered, highlighting the lack of regulation compared to traditional fuel stations. Craig explains the testing process and the potential for a diamond standard accreditation for accurate chargers.Guest Details:Craig Marsden : I lead the technical and operational strategy at EVCI Global, specialising in the accuracy of electricity delivered, future compliance, and trustworthiness of public EV charging. My work focuses on real-world testing and independent verification, ensuring every kWh billed is every kWh delivered. With experience across the UK and Ireland, I work directly with charge point operators, regulators, and fleets to raise standards and future-proof infrastructure. I head the development of the EVCI Diamond Standard – the UK’s only accreditation for EV charger accuracy, aligned with MID Class A (±2%) thresholds. My goal is simple: build a charging ecosystem drivers can trust, operators can market, and regulators can stand behind.Craig's WebsiteThe EV Musings Podcast is sponsored by Zapmap, the go-to app for EV drivers, helping you find and pay for public charging with confidence.Links in the show notes:Italy launches electric vehicle bonus - electrive.com - Cool ThingEpisode produced by Arran Sheppard at Urban Podcasts: https://www.urbanpodcasts.co.uk(C) 2019-2026 Gary Comerford Support me: Patreon Link: http://www.patreon.com/evmusingsKo-fi Link: http://www.ko-fi.com/evmusings The Books:'So, you've gone electric?' on Amazon : https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07Q5JVF1X'So, you've gone renewable?’ on Amazon : https://amzn.to/3LXvIckSocial Media:EVMusings: Twitter https://twitter.com/MusingsEvInstagram: @EVmusingsOctopus Energy referral code (Click this link to get started) https://share.octopus.energy/neat-star-460Upgrade to smarter EV driving with a free week's trial of Zapmap Premium, find out more here https://evmusings.com/zapmap-premium"},"annotations":[{"startTime":28.2,"endTime":41.68,"type":"car","title":"Dodge Charger","url":"/cars/dodge/charger","image":"https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8f/1970_Dodge_Charger_R-T_Hirschaid_22-20220709-RM-120204.jpg","quote":"...g for.
