ees North America, an exhibition and conference for the electrical energy storage industry, will feature Power2Drive, a new special exhibition devoted to the rapidly growing electric vehicle industry and charging technology. In addition to presentations on the show floor, Power2Drive North America will also feature a one-day conference track dedicated to the key technologies and policies creating opportunities for energy storage companies in the transportation sector.
The ees North America call for speakers is currently open, with a submission deadline of February 23, 2018.
Each year, ees North America attracts energy storage suppliers, manufacturers and distributors to San Francisco. Co-located with Intersolar North America, ees North America provides a match for attendees looking to explore topics within solar-plus-storage and more. It also provides a valuable platform for those looking to learn more about the rapidly growing energy storage industry, which is expected to be worth more than $4.4 billion in the United States along by 2022, according to GTM Research, as well as the promising electric vehicle (EV) market.
Market leaders and emerging start-ups alike will connect on the show floor and during valuable networking events, and visitors will learn from industry experts throughout insightful conference sessions. The conference program is developed in collaboration with ees North America’s roster of partners, including NAATBatt International (NAATBatt), the California Solar Energy Industries Association (CALSEIA), and others.
This year’s conference program will focus on integrated solar-plus-storage applications as this coupling is an increasingly predominant force in accelerating the renewable energy transition. Power2Drive sessions will focus on the global EV market, batteries, charging technology and related business models, and costs.
The conference will be held at Moscone West and feature the following sessions:
- Ten ees North America conference sessions and workshops over a two-day program
- Four Power2Drive conference sessions over a one-day program
- An ees North America exhibition stage program featuring workshops and presentations from exhibitors, with one day dedicated to ees North America and one day dedicated to Power2Drive North America
