A new entrant into the EV infrastructure market called Amplify has been created by electrical services company Sinewave.

Privately owned, the team is over 115 strong, including new, dedicated EV business Amplify, and are “focussed on ensuring that everything they do will always be a power for good”, it said. The company added that Sinewave and Amplify “aims to put people and planet at the forefront”, which is demonstrated through it B Corp certification.

Stuart Douglas, Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer, said:
“I’m thrilled to announce the launch of our new EV charging solutions business here in the UK. It’s clear that market changes are demanding a sharper focus on grid connections and smarter energy management, as well as greater flexibility with supply chain partners.
“At Amplify, we intend to apply this learning to build flexible, future-ready EV charging solutions that put energy and the grid at the centre of everything we do.”
Anne Buckingham, Co-Founder and Chief Commercial Officer, said:
“The ZEV infrastructure sector has had a challenging 18 months, with political and economic change causing uncertainty and delays. The ZEV mandate remains, commitments from Government are emerging and private sector interest is returning.
“This offers us the opportunity for a reset, to more entrepreneurial and innovative collaborations and technologies and to focus on partnering, communicating and listening. I couldn’t be more excited about this new venture.”
