Watch the inspiring presentations of The smarter E AWARD finalists as they showcase their visionary solutions in the field of renewable energy and electric mobility in ten short minutes each. Each finalist presents their ideas and concepts for issues ranging from sustainable power generation to efficient charging infrastructures for electric vehicles. This session is perfect for investors, industry experts, technology enthusiasts and those interested in the latest trends and innovations in the area of renewable energies and electromobility.

Start your day with an engaging briefing from electrive and a panel discussion on the topic of bidirectional charging. In just 30 minutes, this entertaining format examines whether the technical possibilities of bidirectional charging are restricted by regulatory barriers. Speakers will engage in expert discussions to determine what is technically feasible and which legal conditions may currently be impeding implementation. This interactive panel will allow room for questions and discussion for a deeper understanding of the topic. It is ideal for technology developers, legal advisers, policy makers and any professionals involved in the development and regulation of electric vehicle charging infrastructures.

This session, moderated by AVERE, will offer an in-depth discussion on the future direction and technological developments in electric vehicle charging infrastructure. Experts will discuss the future of charging infrastructure and analyze key issues and challenges. One of the highlights will be the keynote held by Johannes Pallasch of the German National Centre for Charging Infrastructure. Other topics include the debate on the best payment methods for EV charging and the role of sector coupling, which is driving charging and infrastructure development through scalability. Comprehensive solutions for charging trucks will be presented as part of the growing electromobility. This session is designed for automotive and energy professionals, charging infrastructure planners and operators and policy makers involved in designing future mobility solutions.

Start your day with an informative Morning Briefing that exposes the truth behind common beliefs about the energy demand of EV fleets. The first 30 minutes of this format, moderated by Markus Emmert of the German Federal Association for eMobility, will present important facts, which will then be treated in detail by experts. Together with industry experts from GP JOULE, the speakers will dispel myths and discuss practical solutions for an efficient design and management of EV fleets. Fleet managers, decision makers in companies looking to switch to electric vehicles and those interested in optimizing charging infrastructures for fleets will find this briefing particularly interesting.

This session led by AVERE offers valuable tips and deep insights into the development and implementation of charging parks. Experts will discuss important technological standards such as ISO 15118, plug & charge, VISA Ready and high power chargers, and how they affect the usability and efficiency of charging stations. They will also present practical examples for large-scale charging infrastructure showing how such projects can be implemented. Attendees of this session will deepen their understanding about the planning phase and technological design through to the final implementation. This session is designed for project developers, city planners, utilities and all professionals who are involved in the planning and deployment of EV charging infrastructure.
