Myenergi Plans New Jobs as EV Charger and Home Battery Demand Surges
Myenergi Plans New Jobs Amid EV Charger and Battery Demand Surge

Myenergi, the Stallingborough-based home eco-tech firm, has announced plans to ramp up production and create a raft of new jobs as demand for its electric vehicle chargers, home battery storage, and solar heating systems surges. The company, which currently employs 250 people, is already advertising vacancies for factory floor staff, customer support, and technical support roles. Further expansion is also expected to drive demand for additional installers of its product range, including zappi EV chargers, eddi solar diverters, libbi home batteries, and harvi energy monitors.

Growth Trajectory After Turbulent Period

The company, now in its 10th year since being founded by Grimsby entrepreneurs Jordan Brompton (who has since departed) and Lee Sutton, has set its sights on £60 million in revenue, with further growth anticipated. This comes after a turbulent period during which Myenergi previously reported revenues exceeding £67 million and a workforce of more than 400, before being forced to cut jobs amid losses tied to pressure on household spending and shifts in incentive structures.

CEO Andrew Clint, who joined in early 2025, said the company is once again on a growth trajectory, buoyed by a resurgence in demand for home energy products and the new Andy Burnham-led Government's emphasis on cost-of-living measures. Speaking to GrimsbyLive, Clint noted there is definite "momentum" among customers keen to reduce household bills through the "electrification of the home" via Myenergi's product range.

Cost-of-Living Focus Drives Demand

Clint said: "The change to the Andy Burnham-led Government, and the way he is driving cost of living, is interesting. If you look at our total ecosystem that you could install into your home, you can probably save £1,500 a year as a household from connecting all the devices, accessing a smart tariff and taking part in the flexibility."

This optimism comes amid a heightened focus on cost-of-living messaging from the new Government, which just days ago confirmed the removal of VAT from domestic electricity bills from October. Clint also welcomed the cost-focused language from newly appointed Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero Miatta Fahnbulleh.

Clint added: "We're getting very much back to our original mission and what we see in the UK market in particular is the entry point to the electrification market being an electric vehicle (EV). So, we're seeing a significant uptick in the number of people buying our EV charger - the zappi - and once they get an EV charger, we're seeing families move on to look at what else they can do to electrify their homes and save money."

Battery Systems and International Expansion

Clint noted that battery systems are becoming increasingly important, with a considerable rise in the number of units the company is connecting. He added: "And I see that growing significant because you can save £200-£400 a year using the battery to store cheap energy overnight and then using that energy during the day when it's more expensive."

In addition to its core UK operations, Myenergi runs overseas subsidiaries in Australia, Ireland, Germany, and the Netherlands, through which it distributes products across around 10 other European countries. Sales are reportedly on the rise in Czechia, Poland, and Slovakia, with a new battery system due to be rolled out in those markets in early 2027. Prior to that, the company is set to unveil a new vehicle-to-grid charger in autumn this year.
