Octopus Group and GRIDSERVE both took home two awards each at the Electric Vehicle Innovation and Excellence Awards 2021, with Instavolt, Tritium and Mercedes-Benz also amongst the winners on the evening.

GRIDSERVE meanwhile scooped both the Charging Destination of the Year and Chargepoint Network Operator of the Year gongs.
