⌛ The countdown has begun... 📅 Join us at the conference "Charging ahead: the electrification of transportation infrastructure" on March 19-20 in Lund, where we'll discuss the future of clean transportation. Whether you're a decision-maker, researcher, or expert in transportation and infrastructure, this conference is for you. Here's what you can expect: We're releasing a new European study: How can we reduce greenhouse gas emissions from EU road transport by 2035? Learn the findings and discuss how they might affect businesses and policymakers. 🛣 Discover how innovation and new technology can help in this transition. We'll showcase insights from a five-year electric road project in Lund and take you on a tour of the demonstration site at Elonroad. 👫 Connect with decision-makers and experts from Sweden and beyond. ⏰ Don't miss out – learn more and register now: https://lnkd.in/g4HXPRRb The conference is organized by the electric road project #EvolutionRoad and RISE Research Institutes of Sweden Lunds kommun Trafikverket Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute (VTI) Ramboll Solaris Bus & Coach Skånetrafiken The Faculty of Engineering at Lund University Elonroad Kraftringen #innovation #electrification #EVcharging #electricroads #ERS #evolutionroad #mobility #Sweden

How fit is Germany’s #charging infrastructure? With 120,000 publicly accessible charging points, Germany currently ranks second in Europe after the Netherlands. However, a recent study by Statista shows that the country takes a more modest 11th place in terms of the number of charging points per 1,000 inhabitants. But does that necessarily mean that the charging infrastructure cannot meet demand? It is important to note that new #EVs are not appearing on German roads as quickly as was expected just a few years ago, while the expansion of the charging infrastructure is progressing steadily. Taking a look at the ratio between the number of registered electric vehicles and the existing charging points, it becomes clear that the charging #infrastructure in Germany is fully up-to-date. With more than 680,000 charging points, DCS provides access to one of the largest and fastest growing public charging networks in Europe. We will continue working on delivering seamless charging experience and drive public adoption of #emobility. Want to learn more? Stay updated with our news!

Europe’s future, decarbonised mobility ecosystem will be composed by a myriad of stakeholders. To make the energy transition a success, they all present both specific and cross-sectoral needs. To celebrate #EuropeDay #9May, we are please to present a unique document compiling the policy dreams and hopes of all sectors forming the electric mobility ecosystem! This compilation will represent a unique document to tackle challenges ahead of us and make electric mobility transition a success for people, climate and European businesses. The compilation features notably 🚗 AVERE - The European Association for Electromobility ☀️ SolarPower Europe ⚡ Eurelectric 🧑🔧 EuropeOn - The European Electrical Contractors Association 🏙️ Eurocities 🚅 UNIFE | The European Rail Supply Industry Association 🌍 Transport & Environment (T&E) 🚍 UITP Europe 🔋 EUROBAT - Association of European Automotive and Industrial Battery Manufacturers ... and many others! ✨ Download the compilation in PDF format here: https://lnkd.in/eyz5zTZW

It is EU election week! 🗳️ 🇪🇺 While the political landscape is intensifying, let’s take this opportunity to see how we can, in turn, intensify positive change! 📈 In its Manifesto, Electrification Alliance member and co-chair, AVERE - The European Association for Electromobility, urges the next European Commission to accelerate #EV uptake for increased decarbonisation on our roads! 🚗 This includes a harmonised approach to environmental performance measuring of vehicles, charging infrastructure guidelines, and efficient grids! 🔌 This strongly underlines the need for increased electrification, and with it, an Electrification Action Plan! ⚡ Read AVERE’s Manifesto here: https://lnkd.in/ez2V3YaT

At the “Statustagung Maritime Technologien “ (#Maritime #Technologies Status Conference) on December 6 in Berlin, our colleague Felix Dahms will present our current funding project #SimPleShip in the pitch for climate-neutral #shipping projects - MARITIME.zeroGHG.   With our innovative #simulation platform for model-based system analysis, we contribute to two fundamental issues in the maritime industry:   ❓ How should the future #energy supply on board of ships be designed?   ❓ How can the #efficiency of existing ship systems be improved?   We will address the particular challenges associated with the complex infrastructure of passenger ships (comparable to that of a small town!) and present our approach of an easily accessible platform in the form of a web app that can also be used to predict real-life scenarios such as a zero-emission fjord maneuver. This enables us to make statements about how a possible battery pack should be dimensioned. Are you interested? Feel free to contact Felix Dahms or stay tuned by visiting us on www.fvtr.de.

Germany Accelerates Implementation of Emobility Infrastructure

Another notable observation from the Enrico Letta report on the EU Single Market is that insufficient investment in publicly accessible charging infrastructure - especially for trucks - would put the decarbonisation of commercial haulage fleets at risk. The report calls for industry, energy providers, network operators, and policymakers to work together to ensure the roll-out of electric chargers across the region, and we at Amazon could not agree more.   We’re happy that many of the regulatory puzzle pieces for decarbonising our transport have fallen into place during this ending legislature, with alternative fuels infrastructure regulations (AFIR) and CO2 standards for trucks among the most important cornerstones. Now it is time to ensure that Europe and its industries can deliver, and I see this as a core objective of the new European Commission.   This can be achieved by member states implementing legislation for a truly European solution: charging and hydrogen refuelling infrastructure must be available throughout the entire EU. It is excellent to see that Mr. Letta’s report recognises this explicitly, and it is essential to ensure a harmonised EU approach in implementation. Logistics networks must work seamlessly across borders and regions. That way, EU-grown companies like ECOTRANS - whose electric fleet has the highest known mileage per electric truck in Europe within the Amazon network – have the best chance of succeeding.   At Amazon we will continue to lead through creating more partnerships and investments: for example, our open-source CHALET tool, which uses Amazon’s science and tech expertise to identify priority locations for charging infrastructure across Europe (read more: http://bit.ly/4djCJTB).

Do we need new subsidy programs for charging stations? 👉‘We don’t’ says Kerstin Andreae, Managing Director of the Federal Association of Energy and Water Industries. In this interesting article (in German) she argues against allocating 1.9 billion euros from the federal budget for charging and refuelling infrastructure since previous funding programmes were overly complex to apply for and, above all, very lengthy to approve and not practical. Instead, she suggests that improving conditions for private sector investments and reducing the acquisition costs of EVs would be more efficient in promoting the widespread adoption of electric mobility. 👉 JOLT agrees In principle with Kerstin Andrea. The market will manage the expansion without over-regulation and well-intentioned incentives. E-mobility and charging infrastructure are just becoming economically viable. More important, however, would be an obligation to provide electricity connections more quickly and the reduction of bureaucracy for e.g. authorisations. 👉 From JOLT ENERGY’s viewpoint, subsidies continue to be an important stimulus to promote technologies (such as HPC)with higher investment costs and should be distributed according to their ability to achieve the greatest impact for e-mobility like putting high-powered chargers in cities where most people have neither access to home charging nor time to wait for slow AC-charging. https://lnkd.in/g7vzr_HQ #joltenergy #emobility #fastcharging  #highpowercharging #evcharging #energytransition

As many of you know, the European Union will *mandate* a digital "battery passport" for all mobile and industrial batteries >2KW by 2027, i.e. less than 3 years from now! What does that mean? #energy #sustainability #technology

⚡ 🔌 In order to meet the projected demand for the year 2035, France will need more than 300,000 charging points. For this goal, the industry claims that continuous state support is required.
