Stealing EV cables is big business. This company wants to make it too much effort to bother

A few years ago, a couple arrived at an EV charging site on a mobility scooter in broad daylight, armed with a hacksaw. They proceeded to steal the charging cables, apparently unconcerned about being filmed from a passing bus. But what might sound like an almost comical example of opportunistic theft has evolved into something far more serious: organised criminal gangs targeting EV charging infrastructure across Europe, sometimes hitting multiple locations in a single night.
