The public discussion about plug-in vehicle charging often focuses on the installation, quantity, distribution and speed of public chargers, but the data reveal that the vast majority of charging happens at home. The challenges with residential charging are best split two ways – renting vs owning and single-family homes vs multi-family housing.
The elective vehicle charging solutions firm EVBox will be partnering with the solar photovoltaic solutions firm IBC Solar on the deployment of integrated solar energy + electric vehicle charging point solutions.
Revolution is the name of the game these days — or, rEVolution, as some of us like to put it. Here at CleanTechnica, our objective is to cover the EV revolution, solar revolution, wind revolution, energy storage revolution, and energy efficiency revolution. The reasoning is varied — cleaner air, new economic opportunities, cool tech, etc. — but one core reason is that we’re racing to stop global warming, and we’re not in the lead.
The commercially important 2018 CES show in Las Vegas provided us with a number of announcements worth discussing. Something that we didn’t discuss at the time, though, was the reveal by EVBox of its new Level 2 electric vehicle charging station.
In approximately 9 days, Monica Araya and I, co-hosts of the coming rEVolution 2018 conference in Amsterdam, will interview EVBox CEO Kristof Vereenooghe for CleanTechnica’s next #Electrifying webinar series. Yep, that’s right — we’re going to tag team that Chiefer*.
As you may have noticed, one of my favorite events of 2017 was the first annual rEVolution conference from EVBox. That’s where it was announced that Engie was acquiring EVBox, and there were also presentations from a host of electric vehicle leaders (including — shocker — yours truly).
We’re more than 50% through the first day of our first EV charging conference —West Meets East: Charging Central & Eastern Europe’s Electromobility Revolution — which is part of our Cleantech Revolution Tour. Hundreds of useful comments have already been thrown around, but I’m going to try to consolidate some of the top points.
Sprouting out of EV-loving Holland, EVBox has become one of the largest EV charging station companies in the world … and it has plans to conquer the world with some guidance (and a lot of cash) from Engie. So, we’re honored to have the company represented our first annual EV charging conference* in Warsaw, Poland.
In Amsterdam earlier this year for EVBox’s first annual rEVolution conference, one of the presenters was TED Talker, Latin American EV super advocate, and CleanTechnica reader Monica Araya. She gave a wonderful presentation on breaking down electric vehicle myths in Costa Rica, more broadly across Latin America, and even more broadly across the world. The presentation is definitely worth a watch, so have at it!
CleanTechnica’s conference season never ends, and aside from conferences this autumn in Dubai (UAE) and Paris (France) where we lent or will lend our face and thoughts, we are also hosting our next Cleantech Revolution Tour conference in November, this time alongside co-organizer and regional EV charging leader Greenway.
