Mission Impacts

The Bank's investment in Trojan Energy's patented electric vehicle (EV) charging technology aligns with its mission to support the just transition to net zero and invest in innovative, scalable technology.

The flat-and-flush charging product was developed in consultation with Disability UK and is free from the pavement clutter associated with other EV charging options.


About Trojan Energy

Aberdeen based Trojan Energy specialises in flat-and-flush vehicle charge points which remove the requirement for any obstructive roadside infrastructure and leave the pavement clear of clutter.

Trojan's innovative technology aims to provide access to EV charging for those that do not have access to off street parking. 


“The Bank supports Trojan’s vision to provide charging infrastructure which is accessible to all, regardless of the type of property you live in.''
