agenda
Euro 7 and the transition to zero-emission trucking
Date: Monday, June 26, 2023 Format: Virtual panel discussion Duration: 1 hour
Admin: Board:
After nearly a year of delay, the European Commission finally published its Euro 7 emissions proposal in November 2022. The new standards, which now include limits on particulate matter emitted by brakes and tires, will significantly impact the product strategies of the world’s truck manufacturers and suppliers. .
How will Euro 7 affect the transition to zero-emission trucking? Is the Euro 7 implementation deadline of July 2027 for heavy vehicles realistic? What is the impact of Euro 7 on total cost of ownership? Will Euro 7 spur other world regions to accelerate decarbonisation efforts from road freight?
Fuel cells and the future of land shipping
Date: Tuesday, June 27, 2023 Format: Virtual panel discussion Duration: 1 hour
Admin: Board:
The recent establishment of a fuel cell joint venture between Daimler Truck and Volvo Group indicates that hydrogen technology will play an important role in enabling CO2-neutral transport in the future. However, it remains to be seen whether fuel cell trucks will achieve widespread adoption or be limited to niche applications.
What is the current status of development and adoption of fuel cell trucks in Europe? How will the European fuel cell truck market develop, and what applications are FCEVs best suited for? What advantages do fuel cell trucks have over ICE and battery electric alternatives? What are the main challenges facing mass adoption of fuel cell trucks, and how can they be overcome?
Establishing an infrastructure for charging electric trucks
Date: Wednesday, June 28, 2023 Format: Virtual panel discussion Duration: 1 hour
Admin: Board:
The mass deployment of electric trucks is critical to efforts to decarbonize road freight, but the market for these vehicles will remain limited without robust charging infrastructure.
What is the current state of electric truck charging infrastructure in Europe? What are the main challenges facing infrastructure deployment, and how can they be overcome? Who is responsible for rolling out the infrastructure for electric trucks? How can governments support the creation of robust electric truck infrastructure?
Advanced materials and electric truck
Date: Thursday, June 29, 2023 Format: Virtual panel discussion Duration: One hour
Admin: Board:
Advanced propulsion solutions, such as battery electric and fuel cell technology, can significantly increase the unladen weight of a heavy truck, by up to 3,000kg in some cases. To combat this, truck manufacturers are increasing their use of advanced materials, including aluminum, carbon fiber, titanium and advanced high-strength steel.
Why are electric trucks usually heavier than their diesel counterparts? How do ICE diesel trucks and electric trucks compare in terms of material composition? Which advanced materials offer the greatest potential in terms of weight savings? What components do truck manufacturers target when implementing weight reduction strategies?
Connected truck insurance
Date: Friday, June 30, 2023 Format: Virtual panel discussion
Duration: one hour
Connected trucks have many benefits, so it’s no surprise that they’re becoming popular on Europe’s roads. However, the huge amount of data generated by these vehicles increases the possibility of malicious attacks. Therefore, manufacturers must implement more robust and advanced cybersecurity measures to protect their fleets.
What are the main types of connected truck cyberattacks, and how is the threat landscape evolving? What are the implications of cybersecurity threats faced by connected trucks? What can truck manufacturers do to protect their vehicles from increasingly dynamic and sophisticated cyberattacks? How can truck manufacturers ensure they stay ahead of cyber threats?
