A few key takeaways from Terhi Vapola:

"What we want to do is work with the most innovative startups ... working with people who don't just talk, I think there's plenty of talking and has been for a long time. What we need to do is actually get those things done."

"If you think about the existential crisis that we are dealing with, we need to find the solutions. And then at the same time, if you look at the regulatory changes, and ... Green Deal and the amount of public support into making money available for for the actions, which can help us to address it, I think it's a fantastic thing. "

"The bi-directional charging is a great opportunity ... those pilots are taking place as we speak ... of course, you need to have the adoption of the EV charging taking place even further to really balance it. But the steps into that, are like real today already."
