Electric vehicle charging stations are essential to electric vehicles and the transition to a cleaner, decarbonized energy system. How? What is this industry and what does it mean for you? Hosted by industry insiders and featuring interviews with other leading professionals, we investigate the whole ecosystem and policy landscape of EV charging in Europe, with a special emphasis on our home region of Central & Eastern Europe.
Electric Vehicle Charging Markets in the USA & Europe
What is the federal government's role in deploying charging infrastructure in the USA? What are the business models for EV charging there? What about interoperability, roaming, subscription and ad hoc authorization? Are the same EV charging topics being dealt with in the US as in Europe?
The USA & Europe are two very different electric vehicle (charging) markets and both are racing towards a dramatic increase in EV and EV charging infrastructure deployment in the coming decade but are going about it in different ways. US EV policy has gotten huge jolts with the passage of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill and the Inflation Reduction Act. Just yesterday it was announced that all 50 US States have submitted National EV Charging Infrastructure plans for approval. Meanwhile, Europe is on the cusp of phasing out new combustion engine cars by 2035 and entering the final stages of drafting its Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation. In this context, it was a good time to finally sit down with Joe Britton, president of the Zero Emission Transportation Association for a wind ranging discussion of EV markets and policy in the USA and Europe.

'Smart' Charging Insights from the BloombergNEF Electric Vehicle Outlook 2022 w/ Ryan Fisher
Recently in London, I sat down with Ryan Fisher, the Lead EV Charging Infrastructure Analyst from Bloomberg New Energy Finance to talk shop and their recent Electric Vehicle Outlook 2022. The EV charging industry is extremely dynamic and rapidly growing with new entrants and technologies, and differences in different markets and regions, so it's great to have a leading industry researcher and analyst help illuminate the key trends and insights to look at from business models, to investment trends, power needs, utilization practices, eHDVs and much, much more.

Electric Vehicle Roaming: The Definitive Discussion
Roaming is the main way that electric vehicle drivers recharge their EV out of network or internationally. It's about payment, but also about driver choice and the whole customer journey including additional services, energy system integration, interoperability and the open market model itself. Yet it's controversial to what extent roaming should be regulated in EU legislation on EV charging (AFIR), and the time to decide is right now. This episode features the best discussion of roaming in the EV context that I've ever heard, hosted by Peter Badik from GreenWay (as Board member of ChargeUp Europe, which convened this conversation) with the CEO's of Europe's leading roaming platforms, Hubject and Gireve. This C-level discussion will be relevant and accessible for experts and newcomers alike and covers technical, commercial, and policy topics. If you're curious about roaming in the EV context you won't want to miss this discussion!
