EEVC EUROPEAN ELECTRIC VEHICLE INFRASTRUCTURE CONVENTION

This is an important venue to discuss what is working in the world of low carbon vehicles and to think about ways to implement a practical future infrastructure for electric vehicles that are battery, fuel cell or hybrid operated.

AGENDA

The European Electric & Hybrid Vehicle Congress strengthens its position as global platform to foster exchange of views between the R&D, the industry, the authorities, the end-users and the NGO's actors, so to develop synergies in the field of e-mobility.

As motivations and constraints are different for each of them, EEVC has the objective to help defining the most promising solutions for market introduction and take-off .

This is made taking into account the research and development progresses, as well as the environmental and economic constraints .

Feedback from past and current experiences are also discussed and analysed so that best practices & best ways for a daily introduction of e-mobility could be identified.

EEVC - EUROPEAN BATTERY HYBRID & FUEL CELL ELECTRIC VEHICLE CONGRESS

The European Battery, Hybrid and Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle Congress is now recognised as premier global platform in the field of eMobility.

However, it has appeared that there is a strong need for more focused events. We have therefore decided to stop the EEV Congress in its current form so to evolve into a new concept: the EEV Conventions. These will be lasting one day only and focusing on well-defined topics on e-mobility.

The first one is to take place in Geneva, on 14th March 2018, in the framework of the Geneva International Motor Show, and dedicated to infrastructure.

Sunday 11th February was the last opportunity to submit a presentation proposal to the European Battery, Hybrid & Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle Convention on infrastructure.

The Conference will take place in the framework of the Geneva International Motor show which is one of the six most prestigious auto shows, sometimes called the " Big Six " i.e. Frankfurt, Geneva, Detroit, Paris, New Delhi and Tokyo.

Among these, Geneva is recognised as the R&D showcase since prototypes, new equipment, technical breakthroughs as well as international partnerships are systematically announced on this occasion.

EEVC is proud and honoured to be part of this high level playing field for the world's automakers. The Conference participants will have access to the Auto salon where they will be able to see the cars & prototype but also to a dedicated EEVC exhibition displaying components, batteries, electric drive innovations or charging infrastructure for example.

THE VENUE

The Congress Centre is located in the hearth of the Palexpo, where the Geneva Motor Show takes place. It is 15 mins walking distance from the Airport and/or Geneva train station. 

The Conference will take place in the framework of the Geneva International Motor show which is one of the six most prestigious auto shows, sometimes called the " Big Six " i.e. Frankfurt, Geneva, Detroit, Paris, New Delhi and Tokyo.

Among these, Geneva is recognised as the R&D showcase since prototypes, new equipment, technical breakthroughs as well as international partnerships are systematically announced on this occasion.

EEVC is proud and honoured to be part of this high level playing field for the world's automakers. The Conference participants will have access to the Auto salon where they will be able to see the cars & prototype but also to a dedicated EEVC exhibition displaying components, batteries, electric drive innovations or charging infrastructure for example. 


With something for everyone and boasting an ideal location in the heart of Europe, Geneva offers a smorgasbord of unmissable experiences in a one-of-a-kind natural setting. From the shores of the biggest lake in Western Europe in just one hour, find yourself at the foot of Mont-Blanc, the continent's highest peak.

With its breath-taking views, Geneva will amaze you time and time again! From the famous Jet d'Eau, to the picturesque countryside, enjoy being spellbound by its diverse and enchanting landscape.

The Geneva Motor Show is a superb event for motoring enthusiasts looking for the latest development in automotive technology, electric cars and petrol and diesel powered cars that will be obsolete as Climate Change climbs the international agendas of the United Nations and member Governments and suppliers around the world.

To combat climate change we need low carbon vehicles that many manufacturers are now producing in limited numbers all the while they may continue to produce internal combustion engines that pollute the air we breathe and acidify our oceans.

At the moment motor car and truck makers can legitimately argue that selling petrol and diesel vehicles is the only way to keep the economies of the world ticking over until there are some serious changes to the way energy is made available by way of a decent EV or other low carbon infrastructure.

As we write the most promising solution and one that may trigger the interest of any administration with Circular Economy objectives is based on mechanical handling and digital control of small containers or cartridges that might fit into any conventional vehicle configuration with the minimum of adaptation - but is especially suitable for Electric Vehicles.

INTEGRATION - The Cleaner Ocean Foundation is of the opinion that road building should not be divorced from other considerations during the planning and execution stages of electrifying our roads. In the modern world where climate change is high on international agendas there should be provision for sufficient power supplies to enable the use of low carbon vehicles, such as electric trucks and cars, in sufficient number that petrol and diesel cars and trucks become a thing of the past. One way of doing this is for all new roads to be planned with an integrated approach to align with the National Grid of the country concerned.

Flexible tarmac roads typically last 30 years is well made, service tunnels should be incorporated on all new builds to prevent roads works that delay traffic. Service access conduits should run alongside all new roads (water, electricity, telecommunications, etc) to keep traffic moving efficiently. Planning ahead for servicing is sustainable planning. Most British roads were obsolete the moment they were built.

The picture above may look quaint but the road should have been wider with at least one service conduit running parallel. Roads like this in the country are the subject of constant works and repairs to subsidence. The road tax on 25,000,000 million registered vehicles even if only 50% is collected would be al least £1.25 billion pounds in revenue that should be spent on road building and management, granted that EVs are exempt, hence revenues will gradually reduce. There will have to be a sliding scale as EVs become more popular where they are charged to top up a road fund. Especially when electric or hybrid super trucks come online that create substantially more road wear.

SMARTER SERVICE STATIONS - This concept EV forecourt offers between 7.68 - 15.36MWh of solar assisted energy storage with a capacity of between 48-96 battery cartridges on a continuous charge cycle. Five of these stations (76.8MW) could recharge (refuel) up to 10 trucks or cars a minute at peak times.

During rush hour, up to 300 vehicles might be serviced in one hour if drivers act diligently - for example there is no need to get out of a vehicle at all using automated billing - but this would require registered users. The truck shown in these AutoCAD drawings is 3.55 wide x 3.5 high x 7.7M long (8 x 11.5 x 25 feet). This station could accommodate trucks 4.46M (14.77 feet) high as shown, or with a raised roof, almost any truck currently on the market - though longer thinner trucks are more fuel efficient.

During an eight hour day 2,400 trucks might be serviced using five forecourts on the assumption that we start every morning with 96 x 5 = 480 slow charged cartridges from off-peak supplies. The same forecourt might be used to service fuel-cell cars powered by stabilized hydrogen. One size fits all. The secret is to KISS the design (Keep It Simple Silly). There are only 28* moving parts in this station, not including the gearbox for the solar powered drive motor. This is possible because with this system the vehicles load the cartridges themselves.
