17 & 19 November 2020
The European Commission expects such a high uptake of electrified transport in the years to come that they predicted we will need one million EV charging points to match the foreseen thirteen million electric cars they believe to be on the road by 2025.
The AVERE E-Mobility Conference (AEC) 2020 will bring together stakeholders from across the European e-mobility sector including consumers, policymakers, and leading industry representatives to discuss how we will achieve this goal.
The Consumer Perspective
AEC2020 will delve into the consumers perspective of what will be needed to ensure electric vehicles are mainstream in the coming 5 years.
The value chain Perspective
At AEC2020 leading industry e-mobility representatives will discuss what they believe the next five years will bring and what is needed to support the mass transition to e-mobility.
The policy Perspective
AEC2020 is the occasion to look at what policy measures will be needed at both European and Member State level to meet the EU’s goals of transport decarbonisation and zero emission vehicle uptake.
The Uptake of Charging Infrastructure
The final session of AEC2020 will take place in the European Parliament and will focus on how to support the uptake of EV charging infrastructure in Europe.
