Cost and performance issues associated with the EV battery are so crucial that a breakthrough could potentially deliver a major shift in industry and prove the business case for all EVs. Advances will only occur through major cost and performance developments in materials, chemistry, integration and technology. Industry stakeholders continue to examine the latest developments, which could potentially solve the common problems and provide an overall cheaper e-mobility solution to the consumer.

The mission of the EV Battery Tech: Global Cost Reduction Initiative series is to improve the cost performance ratios of battery system technology by analysing the latest materials, chemistry, technology and integration advances capable of providing increased energy density, power, range and longevity of the EV battery pack.

The first day of interactive presentations and panels will see the industry analysing realistic models on improving energy density, power, range & longevity to drive cost reduction with day two analysing industry collaboration, standardisation and future battery technology to cost effectively deliver next generation technology & benefits.

Through presentations and interactive panel opportunities you will be able to network across the EV value chain to ensure you are fully up to date with the latest developments coming from vehicle OEMs, battery manufacturers and standards institutions.

The Summit will be held at the Victora Park Plaza Hotel

28-29 February 2012
