Myenergi plans new jobs as EV charger and home battery demand surges

The firm is looking to boost production, with jobs expected to be created as demand for its EV chargers and home battery systems rises

Bosses at Stallingborough-based home eco-tech firm Myenergi have announced plans to ramp up production, with a raft of new jobs set to be created as a result. A number of vacancies are already being advertised at the manufacturer of electric vehicle chargers, home battery storage and solar heating systems.

The 250-strong company is on the lookout for factory floor staff, alongside customer and technical support roles. Further expansion is also expected to drive demand for additional installers of the firm’s product range, which includes its zappi EV chargers, eddi solar diverters, libbi home batteries and harvi energy monitors.

Now entering its 10th year since being founded by Grimbarian entrepreneurs Jordan Brompton, who has since departed the company, and Lee Sutton, the firm has its sights set on £60m in revenue, with further growth anticipated. This comes after a turbulent period for the business, which had previously reported revenues in excess of £67m 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 came on board in early 2025, said the company was 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, Mr Clint said there was definite “momentum” among customers keen to reduce household bills through the “electrification of the home” via Myenergi’s product range.

He 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.”, reports Grimsby Live.

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. Mr Clint also welcomed the cost-focussed language from newly appointed Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero Miatta Fahnbulleh.

Mr 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 charge – 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.”

He noted that battery systems are becoming increasingly important, with a considerable rise in the number of units the company is connecting. Mr Clint 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 operations in the UK market, Myenergi runs a number of overseas subsidiaries, including outposts 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.
