What Fully Charged does

Fully Charged is a UK-based independent media and live events company focused exclusively on electric vehicles and clean energy. Founded in 2010 by actor-broadcaster Robert Llewellyn, the company has built a multi-format platform anchored by the Fully Charged YouTube channel (700+ archived episodes), a weekly podcast distributed across Apple, Google, Spotify and Stitcher, written blog/insights content, an A-Z reference directory, and a merchandise store hosted at everythingelectric.store. The underlying technology stack is conventional digital media publishing (YouTube hosting, podcast feeds, WordPress-based website at fullycharged.show) with no proprietary AI, software products, or APIs disclosed.

The company operates a dual-brand architecture: 'Fully Charged' for media content and 'Everything Electric' for the live exhibition portfolio. The Everything Electric expo circuit is the primary commercial engine, currently spanning three UK venues in 2026 (Great Yorkshire Event Centre for NORTH, Cheltenham Racecourse for WEST, Twickenham Stadium for GREATER LONDON), plus Everything Electric SYDNEY at Sydney Showground and a prior Canadian event in Vancouver. Each event delivers 16,000-18,000 attendees with thousands of EV test drives, B2B programming, and a tiered sponsor structure.

Revenue mechanics are diversified across five streams: YouTube AdSense, Patreon and YouTube Memberships (subscriptions £2-£10/month), live event ticketing and sponsorships (transaction and headline/partnership deals), merchandise sales, and A-Z directory listing fees from companies seeking visibility in the free, ad-free reference tool. The customer base is primarily consumer (male-skewing, 25-54, with ~30% EV ownership and 78% intending next vehicle to be electric) with growing B2B traction via the CheltenhamZero council partnership and dedicated B2B EV Days targeting fleet electrification.

Scale indicators8 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• EV Pulse: Growing EV-focused media outlet covering news, reviews, and consumer education. A more narrowly EV-focused emerging player with comparable content and audience overlap.

Direct peers

• CleanTechnica: Clean energy and EV news publication with a comparable editorial mission to accelerate the transition to sustainable transport. Overlaps heavily on clean energy, EV reviews, and policy coverage aimed at enthusiasts.
• Transport Evolved: YouTube-led EV media channel covering electric cars, bikes, and clean transport. Competes for the same independent, enthusiast-driven audience in the EV video content category.
• InsideEVs: Major EV news, reviews, and community site with strong YouTube presence focused on electric vehicles. Competes directly for EV-researching consumers and OEM/tyre sponsorship dollars.
• Electrek: Leading EV-focused digital media outlet covering electric vehicles, clean energy, and transportation electrification. Direct competitor for the same EV-curious consumer audience via news, reviews, and YouTube content.
• The Driven: Australian EV and clean energy news outlet serving the same Everything Electric SYDNEY audience. Direct competitor in the Australasian market for EV-curious readers and event sponsorship.

Regional players

• Goodwood Festival of Speed: UK-based premium automotive and motorsport event with increasing electric vehicle showcases. Comparable as a UK live automotive event, but serves a broader enthusiast audience rather than an electrification-only one.

Broad incumbents

• Top Gear: Established global automotive media brand with growing EV coverage. A broad incumbent with overlapping audience but a much wider auto-industry remit than Fully Charged's electrification focus.
• Autocar: UK-based automotive publication with deep EV review and feature coverage. Direct geographic overlap in the UK but operates as a broad auto title rather than an electrification specialist.
• Green Car Reports: Long-running green and electric vehicle news site serving eco-conscious car buyers. Comparable content scope on EVs and clean energy, but without Fully Charged's live event business.
