May 28th-29th, 2008 - Detroit Marriott, Troy. USA


Presenting the first international event to bring together the key players involved in the development of plug-in hybrid and electric vehicle markets. Focusing on the commercial drivers, this event will examine strategies to make the technology affordable to the consumer and manufacturer, and making it economically feasible through infrastructure, public policy and incentivization.
Investigating the timescales, what investment needs to be made, where and by whom, and what is the potential return on investment?
To develop levels of understanding for the topic we will also be underpinning the policy and incentive case studies with detailed information on the latest technological break-throughs in Lithium-Ion Batteries in terms of safety, cost and performance.
This event will provide a unique forum for discussion and provide the opportunity to create a universal plan of action for the development and implementation of charging standards with all the key value chain members present.
