EV Provider Wins Green Business Award at 2025 Wales Business Awards
Cardiff-based electric vehicle (EV) provider, FleetEV, has won the Green Business Award at the 2025 Wales Business Awards. Founded in 2021, FleetEV focuses on making the switch to EVs practical and efficient through comprehensive leasing, salary sacrifice, and fleet solutions tailored to diverse client needs, across public and private sectors. As the lead supplier on the Welsh Government Commercial Delivery (WGCD) framework for electric vehicle provision, FleetEV has delivered significant impact, saving the Welsh public sector over £1.2 million in the past year alone while pledging to generate £2.5 million in social value during 2024/25. The net zero business was recognised as the leading green business that adopted innovative and effective eco-friendly practices, leading to measurable reductions in their carbon output and a positive environmental and business impact. Jarrad Morris, Founder and CEO at FleetEV, said: 'We are incredibly proud to be recognised as Wales's leading green business. The Wales Business Awards highlight the best of Welsh business, and to be counted among them is an honour. 'From the outset, our mission has been to support businesses and public sector organisations in making the transition to electric vehicles as seamless and impactful as possible. We believe sustainability should never be a compromise – it should be an advantage. This award reinforces that belief and reflects the hard work of our team, the strength of our partnerships, and the trust our clients have placed in us. 'As we look ahead, we remain committed to delivering innovative, data-driven solutions that not only reduce emissions but also create measurable value, economically, environmentally, and socially. We're proud to be a green business, through and through, and this recognition is a milestone in our journey to help drive Wales toward a net zero future.' Gus Williams, Interim CEO at Chambers Wales South East, South West and Mid, said: 'Congratulations to FleetEV on winning the Green Business Award at this year's Wales Business Awards. In a highly competitive category filled with exceptional businesses, FleetEV stood out for their ambition, drive, rapid growth and success in a competitive market, but what really impressed us was their wider approach – the desire to have a positive impact with all their stakeholders, including their community work and support of local schools and sports, in particular.'

Electric car company FleetEV hosts pop-up Senedd event
FleetEV hosted a pop-up event outside the Senedd in Cardiff Bay to showcase its electric vehicle and smart charging solutions to key stakeholders, including politicians and partners. The company highlighted its delivery of more than 400 EVs to the Welsh public sector over the past year, a move that it states has saved the sector more than £1.2 million through the Welsh Government Commercial Delivery framework. Jarrad Morris, CEO and founder of FleetEV and sister company PLUG Charging, said: 'We're proud to be leading the way in making electric vehicles more accessible and helping to drive the shift towards a more sustainable future. "Events like this give us the opportunity to engage directly with both the public and policymakers, ensuring the importance of EV adoption and the necessary infrastructure continues to be at the forefront of discussions. "We're excited about the future and the role FleetEV and PLUG Charging can play in supporting the transition to cleaner, greener driving across Wales.' PLUG Charging, which was recently placed on the Welsh Government's EV Charging Infrastructure Framework, also demonstrated its lamp column charger at the event. The company will now deliver EV installations across Wales, including lamp column chargers, roof solar panels and solar car ports. Cardiff Dragons netball players Elle McDonald and Jacqui Newton joined the event to host a goal-scoring challenge and prize giveaway. Also in attendance was 2B Enterprising, which runs The Bumbles of Honeywood enterprise programme for primary schools. FleetEV currently supports workshops in 20 schools across Wales through this programme. The event was attended by deputy Plaid Cymru leader Delyth Jewell, Plaid Cymru's Llyr Gruffydd and Peredur Owen Griffiths, and Cardiff Council's cabinet member for climate change, Daniel De'Ath. FleetEV specialises in helping organisations across the public and private sectors transition to electric vehicles through leasing options, salary sacrifice schemes and tailored fleet solutions.
