Who really owns the EV driver?

Why does EV charging feel harder than it should? This Move Monday episode, recorded live at MOVE 2026, involves a conversation between Jacqui and Jingjing Ma, Chief Revenue Officer at Gireve. The aim was to explore the technology helping connect Europe's rapidly growing EV charging ecosystem. With more than 700,000 charging points connected across 35 countries, Gireve sits at the centre of a complex network that links charge point operators, mobility service providers and vehicle manufacturers. This special episode explores why trust, reliability and transparency are becoming the industry's biggest priorities, how pricing and charging data are shared across networks, and who ultimately owns the relationship with the EV driver. As the industry moves beyond infrastructure rollout and focuses on user experience, Jingjing explains why collaboration, interoperability and real-time data will shape the next phase of EV adoption.
