Vehicle Technology Expo, Reveals Keynote Speakers

 

STUTTGART, GERMANY / ACCESSWIRE / May 16, 2024 / The Battery Show Europe and
Electric & Hybrid Vehicle Technology Expo Europe,
(https://pr.report/0qfLxe3t)  Europe's highly anticipated European event for
all things battery and electric technology, today announces its keynote
speakers set to take the stage in Messe Stuttgart, Germany June 18-20.
Dedicated to the latest developments in the advanced battery and automotive
industries, each session is intentionally curated with the global battery
leaders paving progress for new technologies to anticipate future trajectories
of the trade.

 

The opening keynote, "Race for The Most Advanced Gigafactory", presented
by Robert Heiler, Senior Manager, Porsche Consulting and Dr Xiaohan Wu,
Lead Expert, Porsche Consulting, will present on Europe's giga-scale and how
to defy the competition through cost control. Subsequently, Christoffer
Blomqvist, Head of Purchasing Volvo Battery Mariestad at Volvo Group, will
explore sustainable cells and Mariestad's fossil-free approach for a
sustainable future. With the European EV sector on a fast track towards a
zero-emission future, the session will help attendees understand the blueprint
for Europe's first large-scale, fossil-free battery production facility
dedicated to electric trucks.

Lutz Stiegler, CTO at Polestar and Amir Tirosh, COO at StoreDot, will
discuss the barriers of EV ownership and how Polestar and StoreDot are
integrating extreme fast charging capabilities through innovative technology
in electric vehicle battery packs. Following in the afternoon, Simon Engelke,
Founder and Chair Battery Associates and Bianca Goebel, Ambassador at
Battery Associates, present a session on empowering Europe's EV battery
workforce. As manufacturing continues to face skilled labor shortages,
education on attracting and retaining existing technical battery talent is a
critical focus for the industry.

Closing the conference on the third day, Yann Vincent, CEO, Automotive Cells
Company (ACC), will showcase the story behind ACC's rapid emergence, its
vision for shaping the future of EV batteries and the company's approach to
developing next-generation lithium-ion batteries.
