    Finding Your Place as the Industry Doubles Down on Electrified Vehicles

    Sales are moving forward, primarily due to the Tesla Model 3. A raft of new vehicles is arriving in 2019. Besides the plug-ins and battery electrics, hybrids (including 48V and stop/start micro hybrids) are coming.

    Is it a response to regulatory policy? Yes. Is regulatory policy unclear? Yes. Are some companies leaders and others laggards? Yes. Is the supply base critical to product development? Yes. Automakers are setting their own positions as they try to understand the threats and opportunities in their key global markets, even as the regulatory situation becomes more muddled.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Current Sales Trends Regarding EVs and Hybrids
    • EPA/NHTSA vs. The Automakers!?
    • California, EU, and China March Forward
    • Strategies in Near-, Medium-, and Long-Term for Supplier and Automaker

    The US 2020 Market for Electrified Vehicles: Forward, Backward, or Sideways?

    FREE Webinar – PlugVolt is a proud sponsor of this event.

    Sales of battery electrics and hybrids were up last year, while plug in hybrids dropped even as the number of entries increased. New products are coming in 2020 and beyond; will sales rise quickly enough to keep the market moving forward? Product, price, incentives, features, branding, and marketing all matter and will be discussed.

    For the second year in a row, we expect Tesla’s US sales to decline, although each category (e.g., hybrids, plug ins, battery electrics) will increase with the strongest increase in…regular and mild hybrids.

    Major changes in costs and technology, as well as the impact of suppliers in these areas, will be discussed, as well as expectations for the near-term.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Review of 2019 Sales with a 2020 Forecast
    • How Regulation in the US and Beyond Is Moving the Market
    • Regulation Matters, But Company Strategies Often Matter More
    • Is There a Gap Between Strategy and Reality?
    • The Role of Suppliers and Technology

    Energy Storage Applications – Front-of-the-Meter and Behind-the-Meter Perspective

    The importance of energy storage is now well acknowledged and known by the energy sector. The pertinent question therefore is how and where. Energy storage applications are well spread across the value chain of energy. Electric Vehicles of course find the biggest deployment area for energy storage, but the opportunity present is much more largely spread. Right from front-of-the-meter (FTM) applications like DSM management, peak shifting, load balancing, providing ramping support to behind-the-meter (BTM) applications like DG optimization, microgrid sustenance, datacenters etc.

    This presentation will explain the opportunities present in the Indian market, and also throw light on various case studies with storage at FTM and BTM levels.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Overall market forecast – opportunities in India
    • Energy storage applications with renewables
    • Energy storage applications for Utilities and DISCOMs
    • Behind-the-Meter applications
    • EV applications

    Approaches to Recovering Critical Materials From Spent Lithium-Ion Batteries

    FREE Webinar – Li-Cycle is a proud sponsor of this event.

    As the world transitions towards sustainability and low carbon emissions, lithium-ion batteries are being used across a broad spectrum of products and industries. The automotive industry, in particular, estimates 559 million of electric vehicles will be on the road by 2040. Consequently, lithium-ion battery waste is forecasted to hit over 11 million tonnes by 2030.

    How can the world deal with this oncoming tsunami of lithium-ion batteries?

    The audience will have the answer after this webinar as this presentation will walk through both global and future approaches to dealing with end-of-life batteries and explore the importance of recovering critical materials from lithium-ion batteries to meet future demand.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Global end-of-life lithium-ion battery market opportunity
    • Recycling vs reuse
    • Incumbent technologies for ‘recycling’ lithium-ion batteries
    • New technologies and techniques for recycling lithium-ion batteries
    • Comparative benefits of recycling technologies
