Juice Bar is an EV charging manufacturer that wants to build a national EV charging infrastructure that will sustain the environment
that will sustain the environment for future generations. I sat down via Zoom with CEO Paul Vosper to talk more about this. This will be a two-part interview.
“We also have interests in bringing manufacturing back to the US as a way to bring middle class income — particularly in a state like Connecticut where we had a very strong manufacturing base. It’s deteriorated, and so we’re able to offer jobs to people who may not have a college education but we can give them a salaried income, a 401K plan and health benefits.
“The amount of money that people are putting into the EV world now means that it’s an inevitability — in particular, the OEM automakers. There’s venture capital going into battery manufacturing, etc. This is too much money moving to stop it. “I think we’ve got a couple of projects that we’re working on, but if you look at that map, it’s a very heavy overlay where the EVs are. I think that what we’re now beginning to see is that two years ago, an EV was a rich man’s toy. You were looking at an $80,000–$100,000 vehicle.
The conversation turned toward hybrid electric vehicles and how some with range anxiety would prefer a hybrid because of the flexibility of using both gas and electricity to power their car. I’ve ridden in several Ubers whose vehicles were a hybrid of some type, and in most cases, the driver told me that they preferred the flexibility. Paul told me that he once drove a Volvo hybrid and eventually realized it wasn’t going to be the way forward.
