3ti has a unique three technology (“3t”) approach to generating renewable energy.  We combine and optimise Solar Photovoltaic (PV) electricity generation, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and Electric Vehicle (EV) charging into a single solution.

We are on a mission to make the energy transition fairer, faster and cleaner - which means democratised, decentralised and decarbonised.

By integrating local mains electricity with solar power, battery energy storage and EV charge points, 3ti provides secure, consistent, clean solar energy for businesses while simultaneously providing low carbon, fast EV charging infrastructure for employees, suppliers, customers and the general public.

3ti is passionate about renewable energy and believes that providing low carbon EV charging infrastructure is the key to decarbonising the transport sector. A core principle for us is ‘charge where you stop, don’t stop to charge’. Cars spend an average of 95% of their lifetime parked, and around 50% of UK households are unable to charge at home. Our solution is to transform existing parking facilities into revenue-generating assets supporting the energy transition by giving business and EV drivers a cost-effective alternative to home charging.

Papilio3^®, the multi-award winning pop-up solar car park and EV charging hub will help to grow an extensive, reliable EV charging network. It is now operational across the UK at Bentley Motors, Silverstone Circuits, Wiltshire Council and the NHS, among others.

3ti will be showcasing the Papilio3 V2X Fast Hub project at the Cenex Expo. Launched in December 2023, this project demonstrates how EVs at workplaces, leisure destinations, fleet depots, and delivery hubs can balance electricity supply and demand peaks. In just over one month, together with TPS, GridBeyond, and Cenex, we will be demonstrating the next phase of the project.

The innovative V2X Fast Hub is based on 3ti’s award-winning Papilio3 pop-up mini solar car park and EV charging hub, which can host 12 EVs at a time. It is housed within an upcycled, rapidly deployable shipping container that can be placed almost anywhere.

The final phase of the project includes a six-month real-world trial using a fleet of 10+ EVs as grid assets. The project’s DC microgrid design is significantly more cost- and energy-efficient than bi-directional AC systems, making vehicle-to-everything (V2X) energy management commercially viable in the near term and accelerating decarbonisation and net-zero goals.

3ti is leading the project, funded by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero and delivered by Innovate UK. The project aims to integrate bi-directional DC charging and the associated power management systems into Papilio3, a pop-up solar car park and EV charging hub.
