As local authorities race to deliver roadside charging infrastructure needed to power the country’s future fleet of electric vehicles (EVs), the Transport Technology Forum’s EV Working Group will meet next month to discuss funding, planning and implementation, and kerbside booking technology.
The meeting in Stafford on Tuesday 18 March is designed to help authorities and the supply chain share best practice in EV Charging Infrastructure installation through expert-led panel sessions, interactive workshops, and real-world case study presentations.
The free event for Local Authorities explores the innovative approaches being adopted in the deployment of electric vehicle charging infrastructure to deliver accessible, efficient, and sustainable charging solutions that support the transition to cleaner transport.
The meeting features discussions and presentations on planning and implementing EV charging networks tailored to local needs, the challenges and solutions around implementing dynamic Kerbside booking and addressing challenges in accessibility and public engagement around cross-pavement solutions for charging EVs.
There will also be a session on integrating EV charging with broader sustainability and urban planning initiatives, and participants will learn about successful examples from local authorities showcasing how challenges have been tackled and how innovative solutions have delivered measurable benefits for communities.
“This really is a must-attend event for Local Authorities to help them navigate the complex issues around installing EV charging infrastructure,” explained Shamala Gadgil, who chairs this TTF’s Working Group. “We are drawing together some of the most innovative ideas in infrastructure delivery into one easy-to-understand series of presentations and discussions, and authority representatives will be able to network with peers, industry experts, and solution providers to discuss strategies and foster collaborations.”
The meeting is sponsored by Mobius Networks, who will be exhibiting and speaking at the event which takes place at Beaconsfield Conference Centre, Stafford Education and Enterprise Park. Gul-e by ODS and Meon are also exhibiting.
There are a limited number of delegate places and exhibition opportunities available. Find out more about the event and book your place here.
