On 15 October 2024, from 10:00 to 11:30 CET, eCharge4Drivers will host an exciting webinar titled “Powering up: New Charging Technologies & Accessibility”. This webinar will not only showcase the project’s most recent electric vehicle (EV) charging innovations but also connect them to the current relevant European policy, specifically focusing on how these innovations can support stakeholders, cities, and regions in implementing the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR).
This 90-minute webinar will explore innovative solutions aimed at making EV charging as simple and accessible as refuelling a traditional car. The webinar will explore the latest breakthroughs in electric vehicle (EV) charging and how these advancements are improving the EV experience for both city driving and long-distance trips.
You will have the opportunity to learn about:
- Charging on lampposts
- Battery swapping for light electric vehicles (LEVs) and powered two-wheelers
- Scaling up EV charging infrastructure
- Enhanced booking and routing services for seamless EV driving and charging
This webinar is intended for anyone involved in or interested in the future of sustainable transport and EV infrastructure. With insightful presentations from experts across Europe, the event will highlight both technical solutions and policy frameworks shaping the EV landscape.
