Description:
Following announcements that both industry and government are preparing for an electric future, International EV Batteries 2017 will bring cutting-edge technical updates from OEMs, researchers and regulators. The event will provide an opportunity to hear from mechanical engineers on how they are cost-effectively increasing range, enhancing performance and improving durability of electric and hybrid vehicles. Event discounts are available for LowCVP members.
Vehicle manufacturers have rapidly raised the bar of their hybrid and electric vehicles ranges. This means exciting new approaches are being developed, from design of new technologies all the way through to manufacturing and integration.
Join thought leaders including Jaguar Land Rover, Mitsubishi and Audi AG as they reveal their engineering approaches to industry challenges. Both national and international regulators, including the European Commission, explain how they are shaping the rapidly evolving market. Learn how the Office of Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) are driving new UK efforts to make the UK a world leader for battery technologies. Engage with experts across the batteries industry, at speed networking and arranging one-to-one meetings using our unique networking tool.
