Episode 6: Alex 🇩🇪
<p>Meet <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-sohl/" rel="external nofollow" target="_blank">Alex</a>: Founder and CEO of <a href="https://meenergy.earth/" rel="external nofollow" target="_blank">ME Energy</a>. For Newton it was the apple; for Alex it was his car running out of battery in the middle of the Swabian Alps, which made him make his major realisation: the electric grid infrastructure simply wasn't ready for the electrombility revolution. It was time for Alex to quit his job and develop a new concept: off-grid fast liquid electricity charging stations. His parents weren't in favour; to his grandmother he didn't even dare to tell. But few years' after, Alex has a scaleup, expanding from Germany and Poland across Europe. And yes, even the German Chancellor dropped by to pay him a visit.</p>
