Background of the E-Mobility Power System Integration Symposium

The transition to a low-carbon future, as outlined in the Paris Agreement, necessitates transformative changes across all sectors, including transportation. The E-Mobility Power System Integration Symposium addresses the critical role of electric mobility in this transition by focusing on how to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the transport sector. A key aspect of this transformation is ensuring that electric vehicles (EVs) are charged using renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, or hydroelectric power. Without this alignment, emissions risk being relocated to generation plants powered by fossil fuels rather than eliminated.

Since its inception as part of the Renewable Energy Grid Integration Week, the symposium has served as a platform to tackle the challenges associated with the rising power demand for EV charging. It highlights the importance of integrating charging infrastructure with the broader expansion of distribution and transmission networks. By fostering coordination between EV charging and renewable power production, the symposium emphasizes solutions that ensure a sustainable, efficient, and clean energy future for electric mobility.

Each year, the event gathers a dynamic mix of participants, including experts in EV technology, charging infrastructure, renewable energy, and grid operation. Policymakers, regulators, academics, and industry professionals join forces to explore solutions to the technical, regulatory, and economic challenges posed by large-scale e-mobility adoption.
