TheDriven.io is a joint venture between RenewEconomy – Australia’s leading website on renewables, storage and climate policy – and private investors.
The Driven’s team is led by founder and editor-in-chief Giles Parkinson – the proud owner of a Tesla Model 3 (above) – and who is also the founder and editor of RenewEconomy, and of One Step Off the Grid, and a former deputy editor and business editor of the Australian Financial Review.
Giles has led the coverage or renewables, EVs and the clean energy transition in Australia over the last decade.
The Driven also draws on the resources of the RenewEconomy writing team, including the Melbourne-based Sophie Vorrath, who has worked at RenewEconomy since it was founded and edits the solar, storage and consumer website, One Step Off The Grid.
