The Battery Show Europe, Europe’s most important event in batteries, electric and hybrid vehicle tech industries, returns on 18-20 June (Messe Stuttgart) opening registration and launching 2024’s full slate of global events dedicated to the growth and expansion of the EV and hybrid vehicle development verticals.
Last year, The Battery Show Europe, co-located with The Electric & Hybrid Vehicle Technology Expo Europe, welcomed tens of thousands of attendees from across the globe to discover the latest innovations in electric vehicle battery development and powertrain vehicle technology over the course of the three-day event. Stuttgart, known as ‘The Cradle of the Automobile’, hosts the fifth annual European instantiation of the Battery Show brand as global EV sales demand is projected to grow over 27% in 2024.
Global OEMs on site
Leading global original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and experts from renowned companies including BMW, ACC (Automotive Cells Company), Umicore, MAHLE International GmbH, AVL, Dürr Systems AG, Morrow, Avicenne Energy, Elysia with Battery Intelligence from Fortescue Williams Advanced Engineering among others will address pressing industry topics across EV infrastructure innovations, next-gen materials, battery safety, sustainable manufacturing, regulatory insights and more.
“The Battery Show brand continues to evolve to meet the rapid-paced battery needs of each of the markets we serve from the European tentpole event in Stuttgart, to now the new Detroit location in North America’s Motor City to the latest iteration of Battery Show India that serves the Asia-Pacific markets,” emphasises John Lewinski, VP Informa Markets Engineering. “It is of global critical interest with each region providing a different lens and varied technology coming from specialized research and development abound.”
Net-zero commitments
“Western Europe is expected to account for 17.2% of global market share in 2024 with anticipated sales of 2.1 million this year,” notes Rob Shelton, Event Director, Battery Show Europe. “Preparing to maintain European position as global leaders in EV will fuel conversations alongside significant considerations for net-zero commitments and summer parliamentary elections in early June. The 2024 Battery Show Europe will create the platform to facilitate education and content surrounding these topics, and we anticipate key global discussions to set the stage for the next few years to come.”
