EV2BE: Electric vehicles and their integration in the built environment

Description:

This joint BRE/CIR one-day conference will focus on the impacts of the introduction of electric vehicles in transport on the built enviroment. Participants will gain insights into the impacts of EV introduction on buildings, infrastructure, metering, connector kits and the effects of smart grid development among many other aspects.

EV-to-built-environment (EV2BE) scope and briefing
Sustainable mobility, community sustainability assessments & environmental aspects (noise, fire, etc)
Products and services for EVs - charging points, batteries, connection kits and ICT/software (e.g. built in EV satellite navigation dashboard and onboard planning computation)
Urban, suburban and rural EV2BE
EVs, Demand Side Management (DSM) and the Smart Grid

Specific topics to be discussed will include:

- the adaptation of infrastructure and how charging point networks will be developed
- the local environmental impacts and implications of EVs
- areas of commercial opportunities in relation to products and services
- an overview of sustainable mobility issues
- smart grid developments

BRE and CIR invite participation in the first conference to bring together professionals from the built environment and the automotive sectors to consider the impacts of EVs.
