Zest

Zest is one of the UK’s fastest growing Electric Vehicle (EV) charging networks. Based in Leeds, the company provides and operates EV charging infrastructure for local authorities, the wider public sector and for the commercial real estate sector across the country. Major projects include Hackney Council, North Yorkshire County Council and Transport for London.

The company is on a mission to make the shift to EV a realistic option for everyone, by providing abundant, convenient, and reliable charging. Zest is backed by the government-sponsored Charging Infrastructure Investment Fund (CIIF). It means Zest can invest in larger projects to anticipate future demand, can act more quickly to deliver essential EV infrastructure, and make a tangible contribution to net zero.

Zest is a certified B Corporation, having met rigorous social and environmental standards that represent its commitment to goals outside of shareholder profit. The EV infrastructure industry is growing and maturing very rapidly, and Zest’s B Corp certification signals a shift towards greater accountability and transparency in the sector.
