EVI: Charging Ahead

Taking charge of Electric Vehicle Infrastructure

14 - 17 November 2023 | Crowne Plaza, Glasgow UK

Call for Papers deadline extended: 16 June 2023

 

Submit a paper

If we’re going to meet government plans for increasing electric vehicle adoption, and phase out petrol and diesel fuelled cars, it’s vital that the charging infrastructure keeps pace.

Submit a paper

This new conference takes a detailed look at the technologies behind EV infrastructure, where we are now and where we need to get to over the next few years.
 

You’ll also learn about the latest innovations in fast charging, battery swapping, and more!

As we prepare to launch the 5th edition of the Code of Practice for Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment Installation, EVI: Charging Ahead is the chance for organisations with an interest in EV infrastructure across all sectors to collaborate and communicate, to develop ideas to meet EV-related Net Zero targets.
