We at System Edström had the pleasure of attending the 2023 Fleet News Awards at the Grosvenor House Hotel, London on Wednesday 15 March. The event brought together representatives from across the UK’s automotive and fleet industries to celebrate another successful year for the sector.

We were particularly delighted to sponsor the award for Outstanding New Product of the Year, which was presented on the night to James Coyle and Kate Tyrrell of winners EV ChargeSafe by our commercial director, David Sawford. The company was honoured for its charge point rating system.

The judges said: “EV Chargesafe is a structured, independent assessment of public charge points across the UK that adds value for every electric car user. It fills a real need for information, with clear safety benefits for vulnerable drivers, and has the potential to be the standard for the industry by promoting confidence in the public charging network.”

David Sawford said: “Our congratulations to EV ChargeSafe, who are worthy winners of this award. Their innovative rating system is a great service that offers real benefits to drivers of electric vehicles.”

Also highly commended by the judges were Dropless, for their Hydroloop mobile water recycling system. Our congratulations to them and the other nominees in this category, as well as everyone who was nominated for an award on the night.
