How one founder's design background is helping to rethink EV charging in cities
About this episode
After the pandemic, Tiya Gordon realized the next global crisis would be climate based. To that end, she's co-founded It's Electric, a curbside solution that takes power from buildings, sidestepping the currently time-consuming permitting and installation process that slows the growth of charging stations in cities around the world. She shares how her design background has helped her be clear-eyed on objectives, identify fresh approaches and break down stubborn barriers, all to speed the change needed for the energy transition.
