Asia is moving fast towards electrifying mobility. Policies are being refined in many Asian economies for greater adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) as a sustainable public and private mobility solution. In response, utilities, EV manufacturers, operators and technology providers are working towards developing smart and efficient charging infrastructure and meeting customer needs of security and convenience.

Global Transmission Report is back with the second edition of the EV Charging Infrastructure Asia conference on April 6-7, 2020 at Four Seasons, Singapore. The mission of the conference is to highlight opportunities, technologies, solutions and experiences in building a sustainable EV charging network in Asia.

The conference will bring together leading Asian utilities, charging station operators, government authorities, transport associations, financiers and industry influencers to discuss the challenges and opportunities in developing charging infrastructure to meet the envisioned growth in EVs in Asia.

The one-and-a-half day conference will have 11 sessions covering relevant topics for all stakeholders in the EV charging space. It will present the vision for electrification of mobility, and policies and plans for building EV charging infrastructure in key Asian economies. It will have representation from leading utilities in the region to discuss the impact of EVs on power grid planning, operations and security.

The event will provide insights into possible business models for building viable charging networks in developing economies and offer learnings from leading regional and global charging station developers and operators. The conference will present the latest technological developments and solutions to improve the customer experience and interaction. The use of blockchain technology in charging solutions will also be presented.

The conference will discuss the views and expectations of leading EV manufacturers, and fleet and commercial vehicle operators. It will also have a dedicated session on the benefits of integrating renewables and energy storage in charging infrastructure.
