2009: Awarded to Calvey Taylor-Haw - Elektromotive
Brighton-based Elektromotive first installed its Elektrobay charging station for electric and plug-in electric hybrid vehicles in Westminster, London in 2006. Today there are 100 Elektrobays in use across the capital and a further 60 located in other areas of the UK, and it represents the first such charging network in a country which is rapidly getting used to the idea of electric vehicles as a viable choice for low carbon city motoring.

In the 70s, Calvey trained as an advertising photographer, gaining membership of the Association of Fashion, Advertising and Editorial Photographers in 1978. He worked in the Middle East as a Unit stills cameraman, documenting the construction of the East/West oil pipeline in Saudi Arabia, for Exxon Mobil.

Calvey went on to set-up a successful advertising photographic studio in Brighton. With a career spanning over 30 years as an advertising still life photographer, he specialised in hair care, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and food. Among his major clients were L’Oreal, Pilkington and Unilever, and in his later years he gained a reputation as a leading food photographer, working for brands such as Flora, Colemans and BHS.

Upon retiring from photography, and with a passion for most things mechanical, Calvey began looking for other business interests, and could see that the future of transport was in the electric car. He founded Elektromotive in 2003 to design and implement an EV recharging infrastructure into the UK. Successfully running a pilot project in London for Westminster City Council, the company is seen as a market leader in this sector.

Thanks to Calvey Taylor-Haw, Elektromotive expects further growth in 2010 through its involvement in a number of government-backed schemes to increase the company’s charging network. He is awarded the 2009 GreenFleet Outstanding Achievement Award for his pioneering work to bring Electric Vehcile infrastructure to the UK and Europe.
