INTERNATIONAL SPOTLIGHT

Norway is leading the way for the transition to zero emission electric cars. This is due to a substantial package of incentives developed to promote zero emission cars. Norway had an outstanding 82.9% zero emission electric vehicle market share by the end of July.  

So what can Ireland learn from this global leader in electric vehicle adoption?

In this international keynote we will learn about:

  • The key policies and incentives that got Norway to where it needed to be
  • It’s approach to getting the charging infrastructure in place to support this growing market share
  • Insights from 120,000 EV owners – what do customers have to say about their EV ownership and charging experience
