EVS - Electric Vehicle Symposium 2012

The World Electric Vehicle Symposium and Exposition (EVS) series, organized by the World Electric Vehicle Association (WEVA), is recognized as the premier event for academic, government, and industry professionals involved in electric drive technologies.

The World Electric Vehicle Association unites the Electric Vehicle Association of Asia Pacific (EVAAP), the European Association for Battery, Hybrid and Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (AVERE) and the Electric Drive Transportation Association (EDTA) .

The EVS series began in 1969 as an academic forum for global networking and the exchange of technical information. As electric drive technologies progressed from the classrooms and laboratories into the marketplace, EVS blossomed into an event both academic and business-oriented.

Today, the EVS series is recognized as the global electric transportation industry's premier and largest forum, showcasing all forms of technologies in the market place and on the drawing boards -- from low speed battery electric vehicles to fuel cell electric buses. The event attracts academic, government and industry leaders from around the world who are interested in exploring and understanding the technical, policy and market challenges to a paradigm shift toward use of electric transportation technologies.
