About AVERE

AVERE (The European Association for Electromobility) – founded in 1978 – promotes electromobility and sustainable transport across Europe. The Association is a non-profit organization governed by the Belgium law.

AVERE is the only European association representing and advocating for electromobility on behalf of the industry, academia, and EV users at both EU and national levels. Our membership consists of National Associations supporting the use of Electric Vehicles and electromobility across Europe, as well as a variety of companies ranging from carmakers to charging operators. We currently have active members in all European countries, and, via our association members, indirectly represent around 2.600 industry members and over 140.000 EV users.

EVS, the annual International Electric Vehicle Symposium and Exposition, is organised by AVERE, EDTA and EVAAP, the three members of WEVA (World Electric Vehicle Association). The EVS series rotates between Europe, Asia and America. It all began in 1969 as an academic forum for global networking and the exchange of technical information. Over the past 50 years EVS has grown and developed into an event that is both academic with over

500 papers presented and business oriented with several thousand square meters of exposition, ride & drive, etc.

About AEC 2024

AEC, the AVERE E-Mobility Conference is our European conference, a gathering where all aspects of e-mobility are covered: the latest findings from the leading academic authorities on EVs, discussion and information on new policies at the EU level and in the different countries, as well as industry’s success stories, glimpses of the future and state of the art products. AEC is an excellent arena for networking and informal discussions with experts.

The conference is about sharing knowledge, best-case scenarios, and a range of experience from academia, industry and the public sector to accelerate progress for the electrification of transport in Europe.

The AEC also constitutes an opportunity to hear more about the cutting-edge developments in the sector as well as gain insights into the most effectively designed policies that will be key for the continued growth of the e-mobility sector on the continent.

About Monaco

Since 1994, the Principality of Monaco has been pursuing an incentivizing policy for electric mobility. Initially, it began as a subsidy primarily targeting electric vehicles registered under company names. Subsequently, it was expanded to include private individuals in 2002 and hybrid vehicles in 2004. In 2003, Monaco had very few electric or hybrid vehicles, but data from that period is not available. However, 20 years later, significant progress has been made.

In addition, in 1996, the Electric Vehicle Club was established within civil society to promote electric mobility over the years. To this day, the mission has been accomplished. This association also introduced the Jeun’Elec competition, an awareness-raising initiative on sustainable mobility aimed at students in the Principality of Monaco. Adolescents aged 13 to 15, about to obtain their first two-wheelers, are sensitized to air pollution issues caused by road transport and solutions to reduce it.

This year, the 21st edition of Jeun’Elec was revamped to provide a format tailored to this generation. Thus, awareness took the form of an Escape Game, turning the traditional test day into a fun-filled experience.

In 2005, the Principality of Monaco hosted and co-organized EVS21.

In 2006, in continuation of this event, through the recently created MC2D association, Monaco organized the EVER Forum on electric vehicles, clean mobility, energy efficiency, and renewable energies.

Furthermore, a working group was established in parallel to meet 2-3 times a year to discuss the subject with various stakeholders in mobility in the Principality, including public authorities, civil society, and operators.
