What would you like to know about electric transport?
Electric cars and transport are a hot topic at this point in our lives and most of us have questions we’d like answered before spending any hard-earned cash. With so much chat on the internet it’s hard for us to know what to believe and what to file under ‘fake news.’
That’s why on Sunday 11th September we’re transforming part of North Beach to showcase some of the innovative, sustainable electric transport available today from our island’s stockists.
Here to answer your questions, this free event will be a unique opportunity to meet local businesses at the forefront of more sustainable transport. This will be alongside the GSPCA’s Seafront Sunday so while you’re there, pop by North Beach and find out something worth your while.
Bring your questions and the family to touch, see, trial and test just some of the latest electric transport available right here in Guernsey.
Who and what will be there?
This is the first Electric Transport showcase of its kind and we’ve asked as many local businesses and organisations as possible to come together to tell you more about what’s happening right now.
This list is being updated regularly and may change between now and 11th September.

Electric Boats
You should never mix electricity and water, but does that mean electric boats are out of the question?
We’ve got Sun Yachts coming to tell us about their electric boats and the future of cleaner boating.
E-Scooters
Easy parking, no irritating noise, and very cheap to run. Get those short distances done while looking the part on a Sakura e-scooter
These bikes and scooters really need to be seen and tried to be appreciated. Come and see Paul’s Motors to give them a whirl.
Bike conversions
Did you know you can convert your existing bike into an e-bike? We’ve got Guernsey E-Bike conversions to come along and show you how. Give them a test on our test-ride area too.

But before you take the leap, you’ll want to ask some questions without the pressure of buying. That’s what Freelance Guernsey , Forest Road Garage and Paul’s Motors can help you with.
Test drive an electric car while you’re there and see for yourself why everyone whose got one loves their EV.
In need of an electric van? We’ve got Rabey’s there to show you how 100% electric vans are 100% fit for mission.
And what about the electricity?
Electric Transport is all well and good, but it needs a supportive infrastructure and renewable power source to really be our future choice for transport.
That’s why Guernsey Electricity will also be there to answer your questions about the charging infrastructure, where our electricity comes from, plans for a cleaner future, and more.
Quick tip – charge when the grid is cleanest and cheapest. In Guernsey, that just means switching on between 9pm and 5am. And for 100% renewable power, set the timers to come on between 11pm and 5am.
