Conference on POWERTRAINS WITH RENEWABLE ENERGY CARRIERS –
ON THE WAY TO CO2-NEUTRAL MOBILITY
There are now more than 1.4 billion vehicles on the world's roads. More than 99 percent of these are powered by fossil fuels. Although electromobility makes a very important contribution on the way to CO2-neutral mobility, a rapid reduction in CO2 emissions from road traffic can only be achieved by including the existing fleet. Sustainable energy carriers are required for all mobility solutions. In addition to the electrification of the powertrain, hydrogen and eFuels offer a globally feasible approach.
The Conference on Powertrains with Renewable Energy Carriers on 28 - 29 November 2023 will deal with these topics. The event is aimed at participants from industry, science and politics who are interested in challenges and solutions for CO2-neutral mobility using renewable energy sources regardless of the drive type. Presentations and keynotes by experts from science and industry on highly topical issues will highlight trends, global market developments and challenges, and provide space for discussion throughout the two-day conference. The conference will be accompanied by a trade exhibition.
The following topics are planned:
- Renewable fuels (hydrogen, eFuels, bioFuels)
- Infrastructure issues and challenges in e-mobility, hydrogen and renewable fuels
- Powertrain electrification and hybrid technologies/fuel cells
- Energy storage systems/battery technologies
- Global market development and political framework for renewable fuels
- Development trends in the fields of combustion processes, exhaust gas aftertreatment and new legislation
- Renewable fuels in motorsports
