Sales of battery electrics (including PHEVs and EREVs) are growing globally, but the North American market is pulling back based on the removal of consumer incentives and the termination of emissions and fuel economy regulations in the US.
Interest in electric vehicles continues to grow among consumers, including prior EV buyers that are looking to capitalize on improving product. How will automakers price their products, and will they sell at high price in low volume (based on a short-term effort to reduce losses), or will they see the North American market as a means to increase global scale and reduce costs (leading to profitability down the road). Range and charge anxiety is being addressed by infrastructure providers and a range of automakers, with new products seeking to address consumer desires.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Current sales and forecast to 2030
• How the termination of federal incentives and regulations will affect the market
• How various automakers are reacting in the North American market
• Developments in infrastructure and the potential impact on the market
• How evolving battery technology and improved features can lower cost and influence demand

Recycling of Lithium Ion Batteries From Electric Vehicles
The recycling of lithium-ion batteries – from EVs and others – will be discussed in this webinar.
Recently, the pilot plant of project LithoRec II could prove that a newly developed combination of process steps enables the recovery of a mass fraction of 75 % and more on a material recycling basis from lithium-ion batteries. This is supposed to be much better than state of the art. Combining different process steps like discharging, dismantling, shredding, sifting and air-jet separation the project partners were able to achieve their goal: proving that lithium-ion batteries can be recycled better. One interesting process dealing with the electrolyte came in a black box (which was actually white) and this was because of another ongoing patenting process of Lion Engineering. A modified and simplified process works to directly recycle scraps from the production of lithium-ion batteries – in order to protect both: the environment and the stakeholder’s money.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Recycling of Lithium Ion Batteries
• Recycling Yields and how to regain 75% and more – on a material recycling basis
• Direct Recycling of LIB-Production ScrapsPresenter
Christian Hanisch – CEO at Lion EngineeringChristian studied Process Engineering at TU Braunschweig (Germany) and has worked in the research project LithoRec and designed LithoRec II at the Institute for Particle Technology / TU Braunschweig on the topic of Recycling of Lithium Ion Batteries. He developed and patented new recycling processes and led the project to the realization of a pilot plant. Recognizing the highest interest of industrial partners in this topic he co-founded the spin-off Lion Engineering GmbH with fellow PhD students and Professor Arno Kwade in 2011. Beginning in 2016, Christian started to focus full-time on being CEO of Lion Engineering.

Electric Vehicle and Hybrid Sales and Market Prospects Through 2020 – It’s Not What “They” Say
Some industry observers have proclaimed that the electric vehicle market in the U.S. is failing. While overall sales have declined somewhat in recent months, this view is simplistic and short-sighted. A number of key products are at the end of their life cycle, with new versions on the way, and a variety of all-new products are coming. Strength in trucks and crossovers currently works against sales of these vehicles, but that will also change going forward.
The increase in product offerings is led by a number of factors including consumer interest, regulatory requirements and government incentives in the U.S. and elsewhere, technology and cost improvements, and an interest by various automakers in making a corporate statement.
The role of dealers has been a problem that has received little attention. There are methods to address this issue, but they are often not utilized.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Current Issues Affecting Sales
• Product Actions and Sales Forecast by Vehicle Type – Micro Hybrids, Mild Hybrids, Regular Hybrids, Plug In Hybrids, Battery Electrics, and Fuel Cells
• Key Trends by Vehicle Type – Now & Going Forward
• Importance of Regulatory Policy Including California Zero Emission Vehicle Rules and EPA/NHTSA Midterm Review
• Various Automakers Have Very Different Strategies to ElectrificationPresenter
