AVERE - The European Association for Electromobility’s Post

How to make E-mobility a European success? Big question, right? These days fear and anxiety are spreading in the media but the reality of E-Mobility in Europe is much rosier than it seems as the Ecosystem as a whole is making tremendous progress :) I will discuss this great topic in a panel next week at AEC 2024 in Monaco with Chris Heron, Lucie Mattera, Patrik Krizansky and Stefano Terranova.

About a month ago, I was in Las Palmas, Gran Canaria, standing alongside a key milestone for Global OTEC: our first structural prototype for Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC). This fabrication is designed to demonstrate OTEC’s resilience in tropical storm zones—a critical step towards bringing this transformative technology to the regions that need it most. This achievement has been made possible through what we believe is the largest grant ever awarded by the European Commission Horizon Europe program for OTEC. It’s a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team and partners, and a recognition by CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency of the immense opportunity Europe has to lead the way in OTEC development. Reflecting on this moment, I’m incredibly proud of how far we’ve come—and even more excited for what’s ahead. Stay tuned as we prepare for the ideal weather window to install Don at Plataforma Oceánica de Canarias (PLOCAN) in the new year!

Interested in new innovation and research projects that enable and support capacity building for urban transformations?   In February 2024, 15 projects in the ERA-NET Cofund Urban Accessibility and Connectivity (ENUAC) met in in Paris for their final event. The purpose was to share insights and project results with funding agencies, stakeholders, cities, government organisations and experts from European organisations. Meet some of them for a short introduction, in our video from the event 👉https://lnkd.in/dQEGwWhk 💡 For more information about the projects and the upcoming results, visit https://lnkd.in/d8eumrH   The ERA-NET Cofund Urban Accessibility and Connectivity (EN-UAC) aims to create and consolidate a transnational ecosystem to drive transitions towards such sustainable, inclusive models for urban accessibility and connectivity. The projects focus on measures to improve urban accessibility and connectivity for all groups of society while moving towards more sustainable urban mobility systems. #ENUAC #UrbanMobility #15mincities #15MC

Join me at BOMEX 2024 in Vancouver on September 25, where industry leaders Max D. Graham CPA, CA, MBA (COO, Avenue Living, Tayber Yastremski (President, SPG), and Milfred Hammerbacher (President, S2e) will discuss the successes and challenges of building climate-friendly, resilient residential buildings. As climate concerns grow, the building industry must move beyond traditional retrofits. This panel will explore a shift toward comprehensive building optimization, net-zero community construction, and innovative financing models for multi-residential projects. Key challenges like tenant turnover, split incentives, and complex regulations will be addressed, alongside solutions such as better incentives, financing access, and streamlined regulations. We’ll also discuss the transformative potential of building optimization, offering low-cost, high-impact strategies that drive immediate savings and pave the way for deeper investments. Attendees will gain insights into technologies, portfolio-wide strategies, and real-world experiences to make informed decisions toward sustainable building practices. Join us in rethinking the future of building efficiency for a low-carbon future. This will be Smart! #RYCOM, #Avenueliving,#S2e,#SPG,#Ainsworth,#GDI

📅We are pleased to invite you to explore the pivotal role of Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) systems in shaping the future of urban mobility during the upcoming event, 'Navigating Tomorrow: Urban Mobility's Future Challenges', organised by our Partner SAE International with the support of ESA NAVISP and ERTICO - ITS Europe. Hosted on 4th December in Brussels, this event will feature six roundtable discussions where experts, industry leaders, researchers, and institutional stakeholders will address technological and regulatory challenges in deploying Cooperative, Connected, and Automated Mobility (CCAM). We are pleased to support this event and contribute as a roundtable host represented by Dr Nikos Tsampieris, Head of Transport for Logistics at ERTICO. Join us in exploring PNT technologies to improve the safety and efficiency of urban transportation. Take the opportunity to engage with industry leaders, introduce your research questions, and help shape the future of urban mobility. Recommendations from each roundtable will be submitted to the relevant EU institutions for consideration.

Three fascinating industry trends Team Gather learnt at the TransCityRail South conference yesterday. The third one is critical for any projects or firms aiming for sustained, rapid scaling up 🌱 💡A Miraculous Turnaround Andy Lord spoke about the impressive financial success that Transport for London has delivered. The organisation serving over 8 million residents and many more visitors is now profitable, just seven months after announcing budgetary issues last year. 🤝Equity in Every Sense Southern Renewals Enterprise is in the process of changing its commercial model to make projects more equitable for all partners. As our company mission is to make the construction industry more sustainable for both the environment and those who work in it, this chat has left us with much food for thought 💭 🤔MVP or Setting Up for Success It's a classic conundrum - choosing between what meets your needs now and what you can grow into. Fellow exhibitors like COOMBES Group and OnSite Central Limited have previously favoured in-house solutions for digitalisation. Their recent successes have caused them to outgrow these entry-level tools quickly. As a decisionmaker, what's your philosophy on this timeless challenge? Just right, or scalability? Needless to say, TCR has smashed this conference again👏👏 We are over the moon seeing our logos at the iconic Twickenham Rugby Stadium 🏉

See you at TIS ROMA 2024 International Conference in Rome on September 20th 2024, organized by AIIT_Italia 🗓 Together with Fabio Borghetti, Laura Ferretto and Benedetto Barabino we will present our work: “How to promote and implement Mobility as a Service? An Italian survey to learn about the propensity of users”. With this work, starting from the research I've been conducting for my Master's thesis, we have been deepening some specific topics gaining some more hints and a clearer picture to understand the Italian context of Mobility as a Service. In the last years, MaaS has been a heavily discussed term, but the trasnsport sector still lacks of a satisfactory offer in terms of scale and quality. A lot of work remains to be done, both on the regulatory and technological side. At the same time, we shall not forget the effort needed in terms of finding adaptable and scalable business models. We look forward to seeing you there and have the possibility to discuss about topics that are gonna shape the mobility sector of the future! 🚲 🚝 🚌 🚗 ✈ #MaaS #transport #data #AI #mobility
