Gilad comes from an exceptionally experienced background, working for global brands including eToro, GoodDollar and Last Minute Travel, in a range of technological roles in the Israeli Hi-Tech industry, also encompassing product, business and marketing disciplines. He is detailed with the task of taking the taxi firm to top-grade technological levels in terms of operations, service and growth.
He is also a known figure in the Israeli tech and smart mobility ecosystems, and a manager of vibrant communities around mobility innovation and smart cities, with numerous business connections with entrepreneurs, companies, municipalities, government offices, NGOs, accelerators and others.

He said of his appointment: ‘Smart mobility has been my personal interest for years.

The taxi business has been reinvented, taking us from the horse and cart until phone in hand – with a future that is open for imagination & development.

Comments Off on London’s first rapid electric vehicle charging hub powered by Engenie
We are proud to be one of the taxi hire partners who joined Engenie, one of the UK’s fastest-growing electric vehicle charging networks, at the event last week launching London’s first rapid EV charging hub at Stratford International Station car park.
The landmark EV hub is the first of five which will be opened in London over the next few years to serve the capital’s 30,000 EV drivers.
Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London, said: “London’s air quality is a serious public health crisis and we face a climate emergency which threatens our future. We need to help people move away from petrol and diesel cars, so we can clean up our air and tackle climate change. The overwhelming success of London’s Ultra Low Emission Zone shows both Londoners and businesses alike are ready to play their part.
“I want to help people switch to public transport, walking and cycling and want all new cars and vans in London to be zero emission by 2030, not 2040 as the Government is proposing. Today’s announcement will help us to continue to work together with London boroughs and the private sector to deliver a major expansion in charging infrastructure and an electric vehicle revolution in the capital.”
This charging hub will be central to the Mayor of London’s EV infrastructure delivery plan, in which he pledged to open at least five rapid charging hubs over the coming years and install 300 rapid chargers by the end of 2020.
The hub will host six 50kW rapid chargers with connectors compatible with every EV on the market. The charge points are fully open access to all EV drivers, allowing them to pay for charging with a simple tap of a contactless card or smart phone, with no registration or membership required. TfL has contributed funding towards the project, which is hosted by landlord HS1 and delivered and operated by Engenie. Engenie will be subsidising the site, to ensure that there will be no parking fees for those using the chargers, for the foreseeable future.
“London is trailblazing the EV revolution and actively working to deliver cleaner air for its 9 million residents,”said Ian Johnston, CEO of Engenie. “This rapid charging hub is a significant step change in the crucial infrastructure needed to serve the accelerating number of electric vehicles across the city.”
London’s EV drivers will have access to the brand-new charging hub in Stratford from 28 December 2019. The rapid charge points at the hub are capable of providing up to 100 miles of charge in just 35 minutes.
Christina Calderato, TfL’s Head of Transport Strategy and Planning, said:“We know that a comprehensive network of charging points is essential if we are to persuade drivers to ditch polluting diesel vehicles and swap them for electric alternatives. Installing a 1,000 more residential charging points across the capital means more Londoners can plug their vehicle in while at home, even if they don’t have a driveway. For those that need to charge up in 20-30 minutes, London is one of the leading world cities for rapid charge points. The addition of the east hub in Stratford is the first super charging facility, allowing drivers easy access and convenient methods of payment.”
Almost 3,000 London taxis have switched to electric to navigate the introduction of ultra-low emission zones in the city. This hub will support this transport transition with accessible and convenient charging.
London’s EV revolution will continue next year, with new requirements being brought in for private-hire vehicles. As of 1 January 2020, all newly licensed private hire vehicles that are less than 18 months old will need to be plug-in hybrid, electric or hydrogen vehicles.
