Join us on the Octobahn: an epic EV road trip to Berlin

Octobahn final

On World Octopus Day, an elite squad will embark on a wild EV road trip through 5 different countries from London to Berlin to attend our WIRED Energy Tech Summit as social media ambassadors.

We've saved spots for a handful of excellent EV-driving customers (all-expenses paid!).

Have you got what it takes to drive the Octobahn?

What's happening?

The Energy Tech Summit is arguably the most exclusive and exciting clean tech event of the year.

We've assembled a convoy of best-loved green tech influencers to cover the Summit on social media. What better way to get there than an EV road trip, meeting on the 7th October and setting off the next day on the 8th – World Octopus Day – led by Phil Steele, our own Future Technologies Evangelist.

What's the Energy Tech Summit?

On October 11th, green tech leaders will assemble from around the globe to lay out the blueprint for the rapid move to a global clean energy system.

Last year's sold-out event saw it all, from the launch of the Cosy 6: our groundbreaking heat pump, to Tim Peake backing solar farms in space. This year's line-up is jam-packed and promises more special announcements. Tickets are on sale now – all proceeds go to Energy Act for Ukraine Foundation.

If you're an EV driver who loves talking green tech online and you're up for a bit of a challenge, apply for a spot in the convoy.

We'd like you to cover the Summit, and the journey there, on social media to share the magic with as much of the Octopus online community as possible.

In return, you get a free Euro-trip for you and a plus one and the chance to drive across the continent with some ultra-cool guests.
