PLUGO Only Japanese Company Providing Electric Vehicle Charging Service　 Exhibits at London EV Show 2021, Biggest EV Event in Europe

Entering Global EV Front with Japan-originating “OMOTENASHI” EV Charging Stand PLUGO BAR

PLUGO Inc.(Higashi-Gotanda, Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director & CEO: Naoki OKAWA), a company providing charging service for the spread of electric vehicles (EVs) will exhibit at the London EV Show, the biggest EV event in Europe to be held in London, the United Kingdom from December 14 to 16.

In Europe, there was an international motor show “IAA Mobility 2021” in Munich City, State of Bavaria, Germany from September 7 to 12, attracting attention with automobile manufactures exhibiting mainly electric vehicles and related technologies (No exhibition from Japan).

Moreover, on October 31, the 26th Conference of the Parties (COP 26) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change opened in Glasgow, the United Kingdom, with heightened interest in decarbonization.
With the global shift to EVs, the London EV Show 2021 has attracted attention internationally as the most awaited EV show in Europe ever since the event was decided to be held.

While the shift to EVs in Japan is said to be lagging behind from the international trend, PLUGO has decided to exhibit in order to disseminate the “OMOTENASHI” services centered on its unique EV charging to the world and strengthen network with the global EV industry which is also the theme of the London EV show.
